Notes de La Mode

 

If you have a gust of fashion, you should come to see us at the Hotel Metropol this Saturday evening for exceptional catwalk!
Our talented designers group ‘The Little Blue Bird’, is performing a catwalk for the next season, with a Parisien breath.

Our designers Nicolina Demidowich and John Asten with distinct feeling for urban style, are bringing fresh look with a lot of cute details. Their performance is full of novelties, daring colors, silky, velvety materials with accent on hand made embroidery details.
These designers might not wow you, but we do have something that would leave you breathless. Surprise of the evening can leave you with a timeless memory of this event. (Please note: if we were to reveal it, it wouldn’t be surprise.)

Then there is our Hatwoman, Anica Holstein, whose charming bonnets, hats and caps are lovely accessory to whole looks of a trendy persona. It could leave you thinking that you are original Parisian and that you are able to defeat the force of gravity and triviality.

And if all these new models aren’t enough, we have our award-winning magic designer, famous Leora Lonek, who has learned to combine the vintage style with the simple perfection of the modern look. These combined designs are being heralded as ‘new breeze’ for the next generation of designers to master.

Finally, ‘The Little Blue Bird’ does not leave the audience with a big languish for Paris, we may have created an experience that is remarkably similar, one that is completely new for a fashion scene of 21st century.

See you there!

Lime trees

lime tree1000It was a pleasant afternoon; sun was still on the horizon. I could smell lime leaves and the air smelled like in my home town. I could almost touch it. My grandfather sent me to buy some mineral water. I hated it because I had to bring several bottles, and it was very heavy for a six-year-old.
But the stroll to the shop with empty bottles was quite pleasant (I had to deposit those in the store). Everything was nice. Freedom, like an adult, nice weather, trees, and as I walked looking onto the buildings and the pavement, I realized that maybe behind that corner is a secret street, where I can turn and come to my home.
You know, my parents left me to live with my grandparents, in another town (around 300 km away).
So, that idea came to me, and as I was passing nice small town buildings, I was checking if this is a secret street that leads to my home. No, that’s not the one. That street has to be green with flowers and lime trees. My home town is just like that. But the smell in the air was the same. I passed a nice shop with toys and wooden horses in it. They even had a Snow White. Probably, behind that corner is the street. No, but there is an apple store. I regularly bought the golden apples that my grandparents liked the most. In the shop was Mirna, my friend, we played school games almost every day.
And in that moment, I noticed that I was passing next to the street that was at a steep angle to the main street. There were some apartment buildings and a yard for kids to play. I should check that one.

My recent paintings

“They stepped out together on a red carpet last night for the first time in over a year, to promote his new movie. The last time this happened was last year when the couple attended the Australians In Film Awards …”

Koreaoil painting on canvas, 30x40cm

I decided to make an oil painting, because it was easier way for me to convey my message.
I wanted it to look joyful, because I have met a lot of Korean artists whose work looks happy and pleasant to eye.
Idea I had: Venus figurine represents mother Earth, her left boob is North Korea, and right South Korea.
North Korea has 6 known prison camps where children were born and grown (if they are lucky) in captivity.
Shin Dong-hyuk is one that escaped and there is book published “Escape from Camp 14”, about his escape.
Right boob is hamburger he ate when he arrived in America.
There is a wheel in the background of the figurine symbolizing traveling of this young man, who cannot find peace of his mind, although he escaped from the camp.

So grottage on the wheel represents — lack of freedom although he is not in the camp any more.

Oh chip chip chip

robby_wendyMy robot Robby has fallen in love
It’ a robot girl named Wendy
So he doesn’t listen to me anymore
and I have to call the store to change a chip in him
Oh chip chip chip

It has happened by accident
She, the Wendy came in with my boyfriend
He brought me flowers for the makeup
So we did not notice what’s hapenning next door
Oh chip chip chip

When we entered the room,
It was too late for changing the fate
Wendy and Robby were glued in an embrace of stone
Sounds Kiss me Kiss me prevailed in vain
Oh chip chip chip

The real Princess

princess on the peaTHERE WAS ONCE A PRINCE who wished to marry a Princess; but then she must be a real Princess. He travelled all over the world in hopes of finding such a lady; but there was always something wrong. Princesses he found in plenty; but whether they were real Princesses it was impossible for him to decide,for now one thing, now another, seemed to him not quite right about the ladies. At last he returned to his palace quite cast down, because he wished so much to have a real Princess for his wife.
One evening a fearful tempest arose, it thundered and lightened,and the rain poured down from the sky in torrents:besides, it was as dark as pitch. All at once there was heard a violent knocking at the door, and the old King, the Prince’s father, went out himself to open it.

“mali”

Black and white, using acrylics. Professor put some white papers, a rope, old pumpkin, dry apple and a box. Drapery was blue and brown – total disaster. But in black and white, nobody could know. Colors and brushes I used where the cheapest. Next time, I shall buy a proper stuff.

Dwg class

For couple of days we were drawing geometry figures. Everyone had different view. At first it looked simple, but we all realized that it is very hard to draw. Point is to match angles, sizes and distance between the objects, that were displayed.
