My Art

Not many people are aware of my infatuation with silk screening. Because of my absence of funds for equipment I havent really produced much, but I will let you see some old stuff. Enjoy!

Since I cant really print much now I guess I will just upload some sketches from my drawing book, and ideas on how I would print them if I could.

The Cools

Recently I was contacted by a young woman who took interest in my blog. She asked if I was interested in being part of a new site called The Cools. Of course, my curiosity getting the better of me, I instantly agreed. So far the site is extremely exceptional, and I like viewing all the different styles.

Bandana-rama

Loads of friends are always asking me, "Where do you get ALL of those printed headbands??", and I have never understood what they meant until the other day. ITS NOT A HEADBAND, its a bandana! I have this bandana that is my absolute favorite, and I usually roll it up and use it as a headband. I have loads of other bandanas, which I usually buy from either a Wal-mart or a drugstore.

[Little sister in the background hahaa]

What I usually do to the bandana is fold it into a triangle. Then, starting at the pointed side, I roll it in. I then tie it to my forhead and push it back. Then I tuck the loose ends under. Maybe on another post I will demonstrate...

Pump, er Wedge, It Up

I have officially fallen for these odd little shoes called wedges. They're basically the love child of a platform shoe and a bootie. Here are a few examples, my personal favorites, at "to die for" prices:

[Tenley Lace-Up Wedge Boot: Payless : $29.99]

[American Eagle Devin Wedge Oxford: Payless: $29.99]

I will try and remember to post a picture of the pair I choose to buy. I may even buy more than one pair!

Kreayshawn

Apparently there is a new rapper in town, and its causing quite an uproar because 1. SHE is a GIRL, and 2. She's WHITE!! Not many caucasion rappers are accepted into the rap world (minus Eminem, of course) and definently not girls.

She is also not your typical girl rapper. She doesnt rap about makeup and expensive brands- she gets down and dirty to the nitty gritty stuff you only hear the guys talk about. She ancourages girls to be loud, and obnoxious because she doesnt want any "quiet b!@%&es on her team".

Kreayshawn (born Natassia Gail Zolot) was born in Cali. She moved from San Francisco to Oakland. She is a part of what she calls "The White Girl Mob" consisting of her and two friends, V Nasty and DJ Lil Debbie. She has two very popular hits out- Bumpin Bumpin and Gucci Gucci.
