“There is a way,” answered the Tree; “but it is so terrible that I dare not tell it to you.” “Tell it to me,” said the Nightingale, “I am not afraid.” “If you want a red rose,” said the Tree, “you must build it out of music by moonlight, and stain it with your own heart’s-blood. You must sing to me with your breast against a thorn. All night long you must sing to me, and the thorn must pierce...

There’s no one perfect state or process to deliver...
Only being able to create while sad or upset. Or happy. Or only during the day or night. Only being able to work in a tidy or chaotic studio. Only when it comes easy and inspired, only when it’s a grind. Only when at my absolute best, most healthy, or most wild. The truth is, we don’t really need any of these states to make our work. Each moment of making is different. There’s no one perfect...

An original image will become a prized possession.
In fact, I feel illustrators have a much better opportunity to be successful in the future than designers. Why? As technology continues to improve designers will have fewer opportunities to do what they do best, whereas illustrators can offer visual solutions in any media for any product or service, designers are limited to hiring those services and with shrinking markets and budgets the...

Scales & Plumage
Digital dress-up! Today my mind is in Amazon jungle. Obviously this is only a pale shade of McQueen, whom I adore to pieces. Have you seen the shipwreck dress and the dress made out of real fresh flowers? I was originally wearing a white dress with gemstone green Freshlook colored contact lens. Thank you to Hairport Salon (Presidents Ave., BF Homes, Parañaque) for my curly locks!

Flora & Fauna
More digital cut & paste pattern fun ❤ I love vintage scientific illustrations. They remind me that back in the day, prior to the invention of the camera and the typewriter, scientists had to be more than just smart. They had to go out into the unknown wilderness to study specimens, so they had to be hardy explorers with survival skills. They had to record their discoveries manually, so...

Don't let anyone tell you how to do it
I was telling my friend, a painter, Javy, about this drawing tip I’d heard of: Draw with your shoulder, not with your wrist. I don’t recall where I picked it up, but ever since then, I’d have it in the back of my mind and I’d feel a little guilty for having the supposedly bad habit of drawing with my wrist. Which is what I do, I almost always draw with my wrist....

More and more I understand
Why my grandmother refuses to talk about her art. What can I say about my art that doesn’t sound… overreaching, superfluous, wishy-washy? All my words about my work are sincere, but I wish I could condense my words into the simple pure essence of what I mean. Or maybe, like her, I should avoid words altogether and just work. Just some thoughts. :)

celestialflux asked: Hi Feanne! Just a quick question- I was going to check out the colored contacts that you just advertised, and I was wondering, and you may not know or not, but do you have to have a prescription to get them from FreshLook? I do not wear glasses or contacts for sight purposes, my vision is very sharp, however, I really want some colored contacts. Like I said, not sure if you will know or not, but...

RosariOko: Half-asleep →
I’ve always loved Niña’s attitude, and writing. ❤ rosarioko: For many years, I lay half awake. I believed that in order to function, I must compromise the truth for the demands of reality. I don’t think anyone should compromise who they are. Just like no one should be prevented from having mad, passionate love affairs as long as the intentions are…
