Afterlife

A little photo session with Prima. Slowly starting to feel the Autumn mood, although it's hard to do when you live in Los Angeles.

So lovely to see people being inspired by my doll art. Check out "littlefleshvehicle" on instagram. She recreated the look of my latest custom. Her work is impressive, what a talented makeup artist!

First Calavera of 2014

And in between painting, I've been experimenting with dolls again. This one has so many new details ;) It will be up for grabs! Also new paintings coming soon featuring my Calavera girls. I can't wait to show you guys!!!   


Also, sorry to say but I am still not doing or taking commissions at the moment. I am enjoying a bit of free time to explore my new ideas and experiment with my art. Last year was really draining and I feel like I really need to recharge before taking on commissions.

Myna and Tumbu



Taking a little break from doll posts to announce that our children's book "Myna and Tumbu" is now out on  amazon as an e-book. We have been working on this book for a while now and I am so happy to finally see it out. I had so much fun working on it. Tumbu was inspired by my dear feline friend, Nico, who unfortunately passed away last November. I will always remember the countless times I spent crawling around on the floor, trying to get him to pose for my camera so that I could use him as reference.

Here's a tiny synopsis:

Myna’s life in the jungle changes when her family adopts an orphaned baby tiger. The cub, Tumbu, quickly becomes her best friend but doesn’t stay a baby for long! How does Myna’s family solve the problems of having a full grown, but somewhat quirky, tiger in the house?

I hope you guys will have a look, here's the link:


cheers,
Irene
