BLACK FORESTY GOODNESS

ooooooh

I took a pic to remind myself how delicious this tasted. It looked so pretty too. I know, so random. But then I don't get to eat cakey all that often. This photo will satisfy my future cravings!

CUTE CLEANING CHARMS & FEATURES


My current cellphone strap! I bought it quite some time back and only recalled owning it when I rummaged through my cluttered drawer. It's so kitsch and funny - perfect for my boring black phone. The pvc broom doubles as a screen-cleaner, the spray bottle flashes light whenever a call comes in and the blue detergent bottle does nothing except look cute. 

Check out these cleaning-related goodies I discovered from the wonderful handmade world of Etsy!

LOFTY THOUGHTS ACEO


The latest ACEO artwork and the last one for the moment while I finally resume working on bigger sized artworks after... about 2 years. I haven't drawn proper sized illustrations since being hooked on doing these ACEOs (2.5 x 3.5"), and am almost too used to working in tiny sizes now. The above ACEO is entitled 'Lofty Thoughts' and made with pen and markers as usual. It is supposed to be slightly psychedelic but the effect is alittle more cartoony =)

I'm also adding some more items on my to-do list: some illustrations for cards, tees and get my Lemon Kitscharms jewellery site cart going since I have the domain now. Right now I'm selling my vintage & costume jewellery out of a blog shop and racking my brains on how to make the transition. 24 hours a day isn't enough! My new domain is this (but currently it's only an advert note to my blog shop hehe)

The ACEO is available in my Etsy shop here:

CAT EYE GLASSES ACEO

I was thinking of getting a new hair colour and style, maybe a caramel-sepia shade. The hairdressers don't get the style pat down so usually I'll bring along a reference pic. I've been browsing these Japanese sites : Kakimoto Arms Hairstyle book and Rasysa for the latest cutest hairstyles.

The above ACEO is made with pen, markers and the background is made with a silver pen. Love the sixties so I made her wear an enamel flower power brooch with cat eye glasses!
