Fashion, Fantasy, Art

Leading image:
Cathedral by Belgian ceramic sculptor Johan Creten. One can easily relate to Johan Creten's take on artistic inspiration below:
It comes from the gut. It's like a kind of instinct, where you combine feeling with experience. For me, history and the links to it are important. I want to tell old stories in a different way, so they make sense today.













Images: Trurt everyone enjoyed the weekend. We had a very busy one. Had eight guests round for a formal dinner Saturday night ( first course pictured above). Added the final touches to a painting I've been working on for a few months ( see above piece).

Wore my new shoes to the Johan Creten exhibit Friday evening, had coffee with friends Saturday lunchtime at a lively streetside cafe. I love the cafe life here in Paris. It inspires one to paint. The last picture was painted by my busy little hands. Wishing everyone a sparkling week. Follow our blog via Bloglovin HERE

Words for thought by Jean Cocteau: Art produces ugly things which frequently become more beautiful with time. Fashion, on the other hand, produces beautiful things which always become ugly with time.

Paris - And Let The Show Begin


Image: Paris fashion week has changed alot since my first show ten years ago. Thanks to the birth of the street-style photographers, fashion blogs and new designers.

Ah, I love the hand detail in the above image. Our photographer merely photographed a street-style photographer at work. The city is aglow with all the vibrant colours of fashion. I adore the merry playfulness of the fashion set during Paris fashion week. For the show schedules click HERE
