Lady of the Swamp

Next I'm going to show you all my remastered painting. The title isn't very creative, but that's the best I got.

Full-view!

I like the hands in her head. And her eyes. Collarbones sucked, I wasn't a good idea to mix both water and gouache colors when doing precise work.

The painting is kinda unfinished but after the touch-up it looks sufficient enough.

 With a simple bg. Firstly I thought a picture of a swamp would do better, but I found no "copyright-free" photo.

Of course Yoshitaka Amano for inspiration:
So calm colors and figure. Sigh.

Dead Lines

Photobomber included.

Comb your hair, please. :D

I've had enough with this shit -and I don't mean blogging. Entrance exams! Painful hours of        suffocating stress. Who came up with this idea to make the exams last only a couple of hours... Stupid enough. Especially when it comes to art and other creative business. I would rather starve and let my hands hurt for 10hrs than scribble something naive shit cause I won't have enough time to finish my works.

Regards me, who hates being under pressure, because that doesn't belong to making art. If you have your deadline at 11am, there's still the whole night to work through. Doesn't that make more than 3hrs?

Earlier at the day on my way to Helsinki. Minor make-up and greasy hair.

Okay off to more easygoing topics... last weekend I managed to lock us outside my bf's flat. So we spent "a moment" out at the balcony. Not a huge deal, because we had our drinks and I had my make-up pouch and camera with. That's the explaination why this entry is covered in my camwhore pics. The sunset was so nice, it finally felt like summer is here.

Deep ocean blue

I'm horribly tired and I should start working on my last pieces for the portfolio.

Here's one in progress-picture.

Gimp can be really shitty when it comes to coloring. I don't actually know what to do with those white parts. Makes me a bit worried.



Then the real point of this entry: I got an awesome shredded top from discounts. Perfect for summer.

Check out my underwear. It looks a little revolting with "nothing" underneath, but yes, I like it that way the most. To be more casual, it's probably best paired with bikinis or a glossy top.

The obligatory artsy shot. The hat looks so great and flary in this.

I wake up with three eyes open

Long time no see!
I have been making my graphic design portfolio, and other stuff for my entrance exams, so that's why I haven't had much time for my blog. Of course you can also blame my bf for absence.

Colored that one old pencil drawing! Added some stupid nonsense, like drop shadows. Really professional. Fuck Photoshop and InDesing, I use Gimp yeah. 

Newest purchases -sunnies, red flower hairclip and the best bronzing powder you can ever get.

Flowers for my mother.

That dress from Fashion against AIDS H&M is mad love! Usually all clothes from H&M are totally boring and plain, but this was an awesome treasure find! Well what else I can say if I'm love with long fringes and tight dresses.

The open back matches well with those fringes. I should start using chicken fillet-bra again. Lol.

Holidays

I'm really exhausted but I decided to blog.

Photos and other stuff from weekend. I didn't take so much pictures as I planned. It's pathetic to take snapshots of indifferent stuff like trees and apartments, and even publish them.

Yeah the only thing that deserves to be photographed is my face, or what do you think?

Me, enjoying a delicious mango smoothie. Tube tops easily makes you look fat, right?

Me, in a random bar's toilet, having nothing better to do.

Me, in my only outfit that was worth of taking photos. Leather jacket with that furry-bust-thingy is from Nelly. Net sweater from good old H&M.

Oh such a long way home. We were too lazy (you call this laziness?) to hop in a bus at night, so we decided to go home by foot. I wore my bf's hoodie in sweet mandarin color.

On sunday we went to a some kind of a market fair, and I saw this awesome bag. It was kinda overpriced (I have seen similar bags cheaper online), so I didn't buy it.

 A pastry that tasted nice (much better than it looked). Honey and almond inside, super sweet! Not even together we were able to finish it. ;p


PS. I got entrance exams letters today! So stressed now.

Short notes

This is going to be a short entry, I don't have much spare time because I'm with my bf.

When I got home from work, I felt bored, and of course felt urge to blog then. So I decided to "finish" an old drawing, which was a gift for my bf (also his idea), and show it to you guys.

Here comes the version without proper coloring:

Full view, right? Hope blogger won't fuck the quality up.

Yes pay attention to her neck.. wtf. I'm stupid.

 ... and the version with unfinished colors that I edited to not look so harsh. I started coloring with my old computer, but after transfering the file and opening it up with the new laptop, the entire drawing was horribly pixelized and all.

Return to sender

Straight from work to blogging. I think I'm a bit addicted to this.

By the way, I spoke swedish at work, and I can't get over the embarrassment. I totally freezed, and stammered through the whole situation.
 
I also got my package from Nelly.com, and I going to show it off now.

A little story first: I received the txt message that my order has arrived, scrolled it down to see all the details (post code, total cost etc.). The price in the msg was something around 540 euros. I was a bit.. suprised.
Later on the day I went to fetch the package, and it was kinda huge -to add more confusion.

After all,  all of the items I ordered were right and they were summed correct, when I checked the note from Nelly.
Guess that was just a some sort of stupid mistake.

Awesome shoes! Comfortable heel, even it's 13 cm long. Combined with my actual height that makes 188cm. Oh well, whatever, I wasn't made to be tiny & cute girl.

 Enormous necklare to add outstandingness even with a plain black tube top. Master necklare, what an exact name!

Shit, gold & silver mixed! Fine detailed, sadly it's a bit too big for my thin wrist. Alright I gonna wear it many many many other bracelets.

Droopy earrings in old copper. Very long, so it's great coordination with fringes.

Last piece: A hat with a big brim. Freaking difficult to photograph. The material is felt-like. ( I hope my cat won't sleep on it.)

Cold Glitter

Oh how annoying it was to spend the May day at home, playing FF and sipping pineapple cider from a sparkling wine glass. Only my bf to accompany me.

I couldn't wear my student cap. Ok that's not a big loss, because it just flats hair and makes forehead sweaty. I guess it's a size too small.

But it's depressing to see how much fun my friends had. Sunny day at the park, better weather than what it was last midsummer. Weekend, come soon, I also want to spent my first days of spring outside.

Yeah, my bf took these photos of the yesterday's outfit. I forgot to adjust the settings, so they became extremely noisy. Something quite quick, yet an attempt to be an attitude rock chick. Lol. First I thought that somebody have stolen that shirt, because I haven't seen it for ages.

Some random pics from yesterday. I think it's quite impolite to take pictures of somebody's car without permission, but I couldn't resist to. I want my car also have eyelashes on the headlights. Enough bimbo excuse to disturb and jam the traffic up.
