Deep Fried Freckles Goes to the Philippines
Well I didn't physically go, but I was there in spirit with hand lettering and a painting of a cute LuLu girl at the at Hip Pinoy Fair for LuLu Swing. The Hip Pinoy fair aims to bring together holistic, innovative, and passionate Filipinos to promote local ingenuity and creativity.
I feel so lucky to have had Isa Abonal approach me again for another illustration, I think the paintings colors and style make a perfect pair with LuLu Swings adorable new line of shoes in front of them! Personally, my favorite are the Mustard Minuets, they are just a burst of sunshine.
I hope someday in the future to really travel to the Philippines. It would be a dream to paint all of the beautiful and inspiring things the country has to offer and to stop by the Hip Pinoy Fair of course!
Check out more photos of the Fair and LuLu Swings shoes on their Facebook Page

Sweet
This is an illustration I am working on for CCAD's Illustration Student Collective. The first gallery show will be held at 39 Below FroYo.
The theme for the show is "sweet". I wanted to juxtapose rocker girls
in leather and tattered clothes with bright ice cream cones. Though now,
(last minute) I am having second thoughts about the illustration. I
feel maybe the look isn't appropriate for the family environment. So in
true student nature I will be pulling an all-nighter painting a backup
illustration and eating frozen yogurt for extra inspiration!

Disco Shorts & Frances Cassandra
I have been wanting to practice painting leather lately and luckily Frances Cassandra emailed me about creating a portrait for her fashion, beauty and lifestyle blog. Frances combines femininity with skulls, studs and leather which is a suitable style for her musician aspirations. My favorite post: Editeurs At Large. Frances displays her style cred. with photos of her modeling designers such as Valentino for The Editeur! What an amazing opportunity and a deserving one of course!

I don't know why I didn't join Instagram sooner! Although I almost wish I didn't. I am now addicted to spending so much time looking through the endless photos of delicious foods and artists work, oh and the cats! I could look at filtered photos of cats all day!
