Penguin and Waitors

My brother and I went to Mens Warehouse yesterday, so he can pick up his tux for this Saturday's wedding.  It was so boring waiting around so I took pictures :D
The girl assisting us was very cute - tall, leggy, black girl from Trinidad.  Her accent was adorable, her hair needs a serious deep conditioning.

After the wild weekend I was feeling sick on Sunday.  When I woke up on Monday it was established:  I am sick!  Being sick is like being a zombie none of my coworkers wanted me around, which is understandable: their voice is their paycheck. 
I made an asap appointment with: Dr.Ashton Brinson I've been under his sexy care since '07.  He told me I am not sick (cold/flu) I am just having a bad asthma episode.
He ordered a nebulizer treatment; which, made me feel like a million bucks afterwards.  He prescribed me flovent and urged me to use my albuterol.  I skipped the gym on monday, but tackled that bitch yesterday with minimal coughing and wheezing.

This weekend: no smoking cigarettes!!!  I have to conserve my lungs for breathing :D

why oh why is everything I enjoy bad for me? 
it all gives me cancer. it all makes me sick.

Architecture + Space: Tiny Apartment - not so tiny

This was a long time posting.  I love watching this video.  The small apartment has been transformed into a seamless shapeshifting home.  I grew up in a one bedroom apartment with my parents and brother, so space has been and will always be a challenge.  Some of my best memories growing up is helping my father construct bunk beds, space saving shelves, drawers, even hammocks to make the best out of our situation.  He really instilled in me valuable lessons of what can be done, when it has to be.  He can take a complicated situation, break it down, and come out with a solution.
I stare at rooms and I get annoyed of all the vertical space that is wasted.  There is a lot of growth in this subject to be learned.




In Hong Kong, because of the space, apartments are small and expensive. Gary Chang, an architect, decided to design a 344 sq. ft. apartment to be able to change into 24 different designs, all by just sliding panels and walls. He calls this the "Domestic Transformer."

The perfect execution of the white and pale colors in light airy materials give this collection an ethereal and hyper-femme feel.  Is it weird that I wanna wear these dresses and enter a room backwards?!

Architecture + Movies: Julius Shulman

I watched the movie Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman months ago and happened to have found this clip which is a fabulous montage of a “brief” history of modern Architecture. The movie follows Julius Shulman's career as an Architectural Photographer.  He happened to have worked with Architecture's biggest name by photographing and bringing structures to life with his unique vision and use of shadow and lights.

And Then There Were Three

Human Experience #10.840: Outdoor Arts

The Essentials:
Macbook, skulls, glitter, paper towels, carboard, easel, blank canvas, painbrushes, paint, book: Sex with Kings.

I worked on a cylindrical shift.  While the skulls dried I painted, when the painting needed to dry, I read.

_______________________________

The Skulls:
I applied more layers of paint, and then the glitter.  I adorned the teeth.  All that it is needed is the gloss / sealer and paint the back before attaching the ring.  After all this I'm going to wear it around and test how it looks - whether the paint holds up, chips, etc.



Concord Grape Skull
Silver Glitter
White Teeth 

Red Apple
Gold Glitter
Gold Tooth

_______________________________

The Painting:
It is not done yet.  I still have to put a couple more colors in it, like blue.  I love to mix my own colors - experiment with all the shades.  I didn't know what I was going to do.  I picked up the brush and dipped it in the yellow paint.  I thought of the word happiness and what it feelings it gives me.  I equate it to a tranquil moment, looking at the sun and just taking in the warmth, levitating.

Happiness

ReMix: My own shade of grey.
I was impulsive and mixed it straight on the table.

ReMix: My own shade of orange

_______________________________

The Hands:
This is what they looked like after all was done.



The End:

Here comes the sun moon.

Majestic Journey: Skull Fucked, part 1

Yesterday, we were working on new ideas for rings.  These are a couple of tests.
 
____

 Test no. 1

Result:

We were not happy with the result.  The glitter is too translucent and did not look good.

____

Test no. 2 

I took off the glitter from test no. 1 on the sample skull.  I decided to combine apple red acrylic paint with the red glitter.   I don't have a picture of the result but it was favorable.  A step closer to what we are looking for

____

Test no.3 
I didn't want to use one of the sample skulls that we have lying around.  I made a whole new batch of skulls that are clean, and ready to be worked on.  I busted out the sand paper to smooth out the edges. Each skull is distinctly different from the next.

This is the result.  I decided to stick to one single all around color.  Each skull is hand painted with multiple layers to achieve a rich color composition.  I made sure that I didn't add too much paint to the teeth so that they stand out and have more depth than the rest of skull.  I have let them dry overnight now today I am adding the glitter, and the single gold colored tooth.  We are working on ideas for the back of them, maybe a contrasting color to add pop and interest - enforcing our attention to ever part of this piece.
