Happy Days

Its not fair to inflict my newfound glee obsession on you. But I just can't not post this duet by Lea Michele and Chris Colfer. A reinterpretation of an original duet by Barbra Streisand and Judy Garland.
LOVE LOVE LOVE

I craft my own drum

I really love African American art and Caribbean or African inspired pieces. Its like a genre on its own. I realized I unknowingly saved a variety of artwork that were done by Nigerian born artist Chidi Okoye. I then started to research him and I was blown away. He is just amazing.

He has such a vast portfolio and so many different styles, I really look forward to discovering more pieces by him.

Yesterday does not define you

"When you have come to the edge of all the light you have and step into the darkness of the unknown. Believe that one of two things will happen to you :  Either you will find something solid to stand on or you'll be taught how to FLY"

Dreams are illustrations... from the book your soul is writing about you ~ Marsha Norman

Illustrations that I adore!!!

I love how the artist's hand  looks like its throwing the punch

All the lines look erratic but they are so perfectly placed

Lord of the flies illustration (one of my favourite)

I title this rebel without a cause :)

So Annie Lee esque

Another fave, so delicate

Too many favourites?

Simply gorgeous!!!

yum ;)

On a completely personal note

Cambridge results are tomorrow. Yes I've been accepted to university but If I fail any subject or get too low I enter my first year on academic probation. So as you can imagine I'm more than a tad bit worried. And nervous. And just about ready to pee my pants. Wish me luck day dreamers!

p.s. Coming soon is a post recapping summer!!! forgive me please. I'm a little nostalgic. I moved to St Lucia two years ago for some deeply personal reasons.I wasn't sure if it was the right decision. But even though the two years haven't been perfect. I met some unforgettable people, created amazing memories and discovered so much about me and I will never ever regret moving here. I so want to ramble but this isn't my diary and I will spare yall.

So in closing, I hoped you drooled over the illustrations as much as i did!

We are only alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures

I was on my laptop searching to see if Charles Clary did any new paper sculptures (thats what I'm calling them , if they have an official name , please don't hesitate to tell me) and I stumbled upon many more artists who have created these amazing and breathtaking paper sculptures.

When I think that someone sat an created these intricate designs and swirls with just paper it just boggles my mind!!!! Anyway these are my favourite so I hope you like them as well.
