Howe Collection pattern design

Summer is a time for celebrations, barbecues and time to spend having fun with friends and family. This new pattern design is inspired by that, I have done a basic stripe pattern combining orange, dark blue and yellow, then I have created  the starfish motive with the same color theme and combined them.
This design collection is available as fabric and in a variety of Homewear products.

Artist spotlight -Elly Mackay


©ellymackay

In love with the work of Elly Mackay.
This artist from Ontario, Canada combines illustration, photography and paper-craft to create worlds inside a paper theater
Her inspiration behind her work comes from her own childhood and her experience as a mother, and also by her fascination with Victorian curiosities and Zoetropes.
When I look at her work, it reminds me of Victorian and early 20th century Illustration, but it doesn't look vintage or dated, it has a contemporary and modern look.
And that's what I love about it, often times we look at vintage style illustrations and we don feel relate it to it on the contrary we feel detached, because it belongs to another era, but she's able to achieve the connection between the past and the present.
As Alice in wonderland, I would love to get inside those timeless worlds  to explore them and have an adventure.

Beauty a short video by Rino Stefano Tagliafierro

Beauty by Rino Stefano Tagliafierro this film conveys the reason I made once a transition into film, watching at paintings I've always wondered what happens before and after, and I always felt the need to bring it into my own paintings, this short film give us a glimpse with classical paintings of what would it be if those same paintings give us a few more seconds to the story. I look forward to watching the complete version.
