The day that I arrived in the City of Lights, it was cold and there was snow falling from the grey skies. I felt like I was in a timewarp while exploring the picturesque neighborhoods . I got lost in the hallways of the Louvre and took long leisurely walks on the Champs-Élysées. It is very easy to fall in love with Paris. No other city is as charming and beautiful and nostalgic. On my last day, I stood atop the Eiffel tower and gazed at the twinkling lights of the city reflected on the Seine, and thought to myself that one day I will be back, walk the same streets, eat at the same cafes, and live the past four days, sometime again in the future.
Philips launched the new Senso Touch 3d at an event held at Armani Hotel, Burj Khalifa (the tallest building in the world as of writing!) last October 20, 2010. Part of the event was an exhibit showcasing artworks that were creative interpretations of the new product. 5 artists from different disciplines were invited to create a work of art inspired by the Philips Senso Touch 3d. As one of the invited artists, I created a mural for the event, using acrylic on wood as my chosen medium. The mural was made out of three wooden boards, and hung rather unconventionally ( on a baggage trolley and clothes hangers). There will be a follow-up exhibition at the Shelter Gallery, Al Quoz, Dubai soon and the artworks will be auctioned off for charity.
I have custom painted art work on a of couple LV items and they are chronicled on several Purseforum threads. However...today I got a shock when a fellow TPF member PM-ed me that a replica site has stolen my work with this:
At first I found it just amusing, but then realization sank in; the design was custom made and was designed for a specific person, its not supposed to be mass produced. it makes me upset that the piraters can take something that's handmade with love, and turn it into something thats cheap and common.
Anyway folks, shit happens. Keep creating in spite of it all.
Finally, im done with this LV Neverfull custom!!!!!!* took me roughly the same amount of time to do the lv speedy custom... anyhow, I was listening to Katy Perry's "California Girls" song nonstop (hahaha), so maybe this is why it turned out it this way.
Good news folks! You can now buy my crap at: Society 6 A selection of my artwork will be available on limited edition prints, laptop skins, ipod & iphone skins, and tshirts.
