Planting Seeds of Kindness

Tie kindness to planting seeds -- seeds start small and they grow and sprout into big plants or huge trees just like kindness can grow. 

A week ago, someone wanted to order my ' Dandelion Wish" Iphone case for her sister's upcoming birthday via etsy - VHNYBoutique. She mentioned that her sister knew me.

Yes, Her sister was a friend of S. We met during the Lawrenceville School reunion this May. Before then, she told me where I could secretly plant My Little Norway Spruce, in central park. 

I decided that I would give her the case as her birthday gift! They wanted order 5 cases to support my fledgling business as return. They love my painting, and sent me their pets pictures for portrait. I had not painted many animals before! They were so adorable! I did enjoy painting them. Kate - the border collie, was the most challenging one. She just passed away. They did not have a good shot of her. I had to rely on a very blurry picture of her and how they described her to create the image of Kate. I understood how much she meant to them, it was so emotional. I took the project very seriously! Fortunately, the outcome was great! Here are the cases I created! My original paintings are much nicer. It is inevitable and unfortunate that some details and color saturation are sacrificed during the printing process!

The Great Gatsby Fashion

Coming out the theater, despite feeling sad about lives that were corrupted by selfishness and greed, I was blown away by Baz Luhmann's version of The Great Gatsby.  His vision of the story was painted with lavish thematic scenes and featured the vibrant styles of Jazz Era. Miuccia Prada and Catherine Martin designed over 50 costumes for the film- the Golden Twenties' style with modern infusion. I have always been fascinated by the 20's. Its style is so distinguishable that even 90 years later, almost everyone still can recognize it.

My personal opinion is that the 20's was the beginning of the modern age. Coco Chanel said" fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." The world changed rapidly after WWI and fashion changed along with it. The Flappers - young women at the time, left their corsets behind and put on a cloche hat to cover their short locks.  They wore the dresses without waist or dropped the waistlines to their low hips and enjoyed the looseness of the prime time of their lives. Their dresses with the hemline just below the knees was often adorned with excessive fur and sequins. Fashion had changed, and it would never be the same.

Straight sheath dresses with Art Deco jeweling and applique, low-waist frocks, pleating and flounces pay homage to the twenties high fashion.

Selfridges & Co. London Window Display

In a freezing night, walking past the Selfridges window at Oxford street, 

the gigantic shoe caught my eyes.

It was made from steel pots and lids.  

Brilliant!
