Well , for many calligraphers it may be a dream job but meet Mr. Nicolas Ouchenir, for whom this is has become a reality.

He’s is one of the most sought after and go-to calligraphers in the industry today who’s shown that calligraphy is not just about craft & hobby but it can be taken to whole another level as a serious profession.

Art Inspiration/3 – TANYA YEREMEYEVA

October 20, 2014

Morning everyone! How was your weekend ? mine was extremely busy , photo shoots, housewarming party and prep work to decorate a 6 year old clients room. In-fact the whole last week has been hectic and i haven’t been able to post much , however last week I told you guys I would be dedicating a whole week to CALLIGRAPHY posts and here is the first one. Today I am sharing the work of a talented artist.. definitely a great inspiration for a monday morning.

About the artist,

Tanya is a freelance motion graphics artist, currently working out of New York City. As a relatively new member of the lettering world, she started promoting her work online by creating one piece of lettering a day and publishing it via social media, and she quickly gained a following. Her work is mainly hand drawn, though some designs are later digitized.

Tanya’s love for lettering stemmed from starting a calligraphy course back in her home country, Ukraine, as a way to have a distraction from stresses of social activism. It quickly grew into her outlet for positivity, optimism and motivation that shows through the work.

Fall Staples / Tights – Part 3

November 5, 2015

Hey there! Today it’s fall staples / tights – Part 3 of the style series. (See Part 1 & Part 2). There has been a lot of speculation over wearing tights in winter, are they out of fashion? Some say that they look old, out dated and matronly. Well, I have would have to disagree. I think I’m on the side of pro-tights team even today. In my opinion, I don’t think any fashion garment or accessory ever really goes out of style. I think it’s just the way you rethink pairing it with other items and styling it differently is what makes a difference.

The same applies for tights. As soon as you put them on, your legs get a definition almost instantly and thighs feel celluloid free. The stretch, the fit, the sense of form and structure is just perfect. And somehow that shows in your attitude too. And I don’t think that feeling can be replaced with anything else. Tights are the perfect inner wear for winters and can be layered as per your choice. For me they will never go out of fashion. In fact, I feel wearing colored tights is even more fun. That was my main motivation behind creating this series of posts.

I hope you feel inspired to try them on to. Now’s the time to get those hosiery drawers filled and experiment with your looks. Have fun this fall and winter season.
