Creativity + Inspiration

Hey dolls! Summer is a great time to get inspired, don't you think? The lovely hot days, warm nights, bright colors, and of course the beach! I've been tapping into my creativity from nature, and of course on Pinterest. Here are some of my up-coming creativity goals that I find inspiration and to try new fields of art techniques:

Also, I'm planning on checking out one of my favorite artist's exhibit in Toronto: AGO to Present Major Exhibition of Picasso Works in 2012! I saw Picasso's Museum when I traveled to Barcelona, Spain, a few years ago, and it was incredible. He was such a talented artist, where his works sparked me to try different art forms, as well as the culture across the city. Any unique inspirations you've had? I'd love to hear about them below! That's all for now dolls xo

Tim Burton // Inspiration

As some of you may know that one of my favorite directors + writers is Tim Burton! I find him to be one of the most brilliant modern artists from his original characters to his clay animation to his style of story-telling; he is so creative and inspiring. Some of my favorite movies happen to be ones he was a part of old and new: 

• Alice in Wonderland
• A Nightmare Before Christmas
• Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
• Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
• Edward Scissorhands
• The Corpse Bride
• James and the Giant Peach

 He has a new movie coming out October 5, 2012 called Frankenweenie I can't wait to see. Enjoy the trailer until then, and let me know below what your favorite Tim Burton movies and characters are!
