Fashionable Fun

I've recently discovered this really cool site - Polyvore. There is a tool for creating clothing/fashion sets (and more). It's like online/virtual Barbie doll fun (without the weirdly shaped plastic girl) with tons of clothes, shoes, and accessories to choose from ;) Below is one of my first fashion "paintings" ... tons of fun!!

Old World

Heidelberg Castle

This photo was taken at Heidelberg Castle (Heidelberg, Germany) on my first trip to europe.  I really love the composition of this photo (yes, patting myself on the back) ... for me it seems to evoke some "old world" feel.  I tweaked the photo with Photoshop (doing a series of little tutorials) using desaturation.

Reptiles

I've always enjoyed MC Escher's work (probably the mathy-side to thank for that).

Reptiles (tesselation 25) was the inspiration for this palette ...

I seem to like "muted" colors a lot ... or perhaps its more those that seem more "natural" ... not sure ... have to think about that :)
