There's a shadow hanging over me.

Hedi Slimane Diary

New Year's Print.

I did my first engraved prints today.
It is a very enjoyable process and help you think of nothing else!

Messy.

Back from Etyek, Hungary.
Messy head.
Like this painting.

Happy Thanksgiving Americans!

I hope you spend/spent a peaceful Thanksgiving. I'm off to Austria to help my mother for her painting exhibition and then to Hungary to visit my family. I'm not sure I'll be able to post from there, so have a good week everyone!

Nagymama.

Just stumbled upon that song of Lana del Rey, made me think of my grand-mother. She is the wisest person I know. An artist. Always listening, always saying the right thing. She is 85 and still works on a new book. She wrote lots of them, about weaving, natural dye, minerals... My cousin Dóra wrote an article about them here.

Little story: she never smoke in her whole life, but one cigarette and there is a photo of it.

Still.

Fulang-Chang and I. Frida Kahlo. MoMA. NYC. Sept 2011.

Still.
Standing still in front of the painting.
Just my mind wandering away.
Away to Mexico.
But it's sadness in her eyes.
Sadness and pride.
Love.

Liverpool.Streets.

I wonder what this means? Anyone?

Bon appétit!

At the Royal Academy of Arts in London.
What does that sign make you think of?

P.S: Go see the exhibition "Eyewitness: Hungarian photography in the 20th century" if you are in the city!

Friducha!

I rarely plan my outfits in advance, but yesterday evening, speaking of The Magnificent Seven I felt inspired by Mexican customs. I especially like the uncommon look of Frida Kahlo.

Bon week-end!

All the Buildings in New York

I've just discovered this artist's blog via Blogger.

James Gulliver Hancock is a young Australian expat in Brooklyn, New York, who decided to draw all the buildings in New York.

I think it's a great challenge.

It made me think about a secret project Elena and I had in the Paris' tube...

Anyways, I'm going to check James' posts regularly, to feed my NYC dream...

If you like it, you can buy prints or originals on his blog!
