spring summer 2013 (orchid blooms) textile art pins

inspirations from just about anywhere, anything, that---stirs your heart and mind ;D

(snatch up these last remaining bunch of orchids of satin, and synthetic cloth from a fave supply shop because i'm meaning to transform them into  'artpins 0' orchids'--so you'll prance around in them wherever!)
enjoy!

 all hand-made, pieced, sewn. the very essence of--hand-made art.

(often when working on some new batch of works/collection, i am confused and always seeming to find the balance between: art/aesthetics vs. production/speed; sublimity vs. profit and the problem of pricing ;(.  

one thing th0'--i'm almost always apt to effacing the machine-made look finish.

clearly--hand-made-ism ;D.

 i have ranted and whined about the hand-stamped made by the rubber stamp maker somewhere in manila, and finally found a way in sprucing about the look of my label--just so because i am maximizing yet the use of this hand-stamp.

 ready. enjoy!

blo0ppers. its been a while since we have done this. the no frills, no fuss, instant foto shoots in between classes. spotting and looking around for the chance whom i can harass to model instantly for me :D.

technique: look around who is well dressed, made up, clothes matching, and that is fitting for the art/item to be photographed, promoted and listed. sometimes i dont have to look far. my very colleague, a former art student is now with us as part-time lecturer on the digital art courses. seeing her attire, i asked if she can model for me just before she meets her class----and sweet heavens--she said --yes. thank you miss shanda! you are a poser :D)))))))
