Crisp, black, white
My first rendezvous with black and white came about the same time I first laid eyes on impeccably tailored clothes.
It was around the mid-’90s–local fashion was defined by a few designers and an even smaller number of glossies (just two, I think). My mom loved dropping by the department store of the then-new SM Megamall, me in tow, during those lazy summer days. I was totally uninterested in fashion. I honestly dreaded those aisles (waiting for mom to finish trying clothes on made it worse). My pubescent mind could not comprehend why, really, women enjoyed shopping for clothes…
Until I comprehended Cesar Gaupo.
Colors of love
It’s love when you find donuts in colors you adore–and in mini-me versions? Too cute.
Krispy Kreme sent us a batch of these this afternoon. I suggested we take photos of them first (unfortunately for me, I didn’t have a camera–but I was dead set on recreating them regardless, hee). I wasn’t too keen on devouring the tiny rings, and I would’ve been content just looking at them all afternoon!
Other people in the office got their boxes. Heard one of them say, “I don’t really eat donuts–they’re just fried air.” Actually she’s right. I’d already convinced myself of the same, seeing I hadn’t lost all the holiday weight I’d carelessly piled on–but eventually curiosity got the better of me. Besides… I always wanted to find out what pale pink and periwinkle taste like.
Dress my desk
I’ve broken the silence of my too-generic-looking office desk by sprucing it up with my personal style. It’s a mini-project I began a couple of weeks back…
Candy floss
Another strawberry-ice-cream pink entry finds its way here. What can I say, I’m so in love with this season’s romantic shades. I can’t help it. (This is actually a study I made for a new project, and I’m happy I get to do my own style–let’s see what client thinks…)
Tried drawing more naturally, and I like how “organic” this turned out.
