go green

Go green..literally!

Body Cleanses are becoming the hottest trend in 21st century health and beauty. I read up a bit about body cleanses and this is the info I got: Body cleanses should be for a minimum of 3 days.

Cleanse your body of all artificial ingredients, toxins, salts and sugars. Eat only fruits, greens and drink a lot of H20!

You should see a change in you skin, hair, eyes and weight!

When you get back to eating normal, eat foods high in fiber and low fat proteins.

It sounds really nice...

After i just ate a slice for lunch and chocolate ice cream for dessert;)

ps. these napkins were  just plain white napkins.In my photoshop class we learnt how to put an image on a material and make it look like that's how it came. It's called "displacement map." The drawing was done on my tablet.

 I'm getting back in touch with my creative side. 

Didn't do a stitch of work since I got home from work

 yaaaaaa:)))

AND I'M PROUD OF IT!!

Stay healthy,

color me pretty

On Friday I ran into the pharmacy to pick up some stuff. Right when i entered I saw a something that was made for me. It was a set of 120 eyeshadows in this pretty sleek black case with a big built in mirror! It was not much of an investment,so i bought it without a clue on the quality. When i got home, to my surprise, the shadows were rich in pigment and looked great! On Friday I tried a gold, copper and pink combo and tonight for fun a blue, purple and pink smokey eye look. I love painting and make-up so for me this is heaven.The above pics were taken by me using my humble canon power shot SD790 IS on "digital macro" mode.And of course edited on photoshop.
ps.I'm thinking who's birthday is coming up cuz it's a great, fun, gift.
Have a fun and colorful week,

GUCCI saved the DAY

Hey, peoples! Yes I'm still around thank G-d..:) I have been very very busy the past while, preparing for teaching and the like. Yesterday I was on the verge of burnout. I then realized that's is as important for me to draw, as is air to others... I was giving up on my art for preparing and stuff.. BAD IDEA! So yesterday after teaching i went home and watched the latest spring 2011 fashion runways on style.com. Gucci's runway stole the show. This pencil drawing is of Gucci's present winter collection on Gucci.com. I loved the colors, hats and of course the SUNGLASSES!! I will try to be good and post more religiously! Thanks everyone for telling me how much you missed my posts! And I'd like to personally welcome 2 new followers on paislies "hi!"

PS. I'm sitting in my photoshopclass now. And my professor helped me out with changing the lighting on the girl..thx professor..

Take care,

***ppps. As author of paislies i took the right to change the originally posted image for this post. It was very un-"paislies"ish. I guess it was the not blogging for a while...:)thanks for understanding

something smells nice

I should be preparing for teaching and so i can get a normal nights rest. But since forever I wanted to draw perfume bottles using my tablet. It was so fun.. I think I'll quit my highly stimulating day job and do this for a living . (Ma..I AM JUST KIDDING!! LOL) Well hope you enjoy. If you want a cute wall paper, simply drag a perfume bottle onto your desktop. Next, set it as background> use tile mode and Voila! how pretty! have a great night!
