Playfull Nautical Story With A Purpose

Ilustracija je natala na pobudo Sue B. Zimmerman. Se jo še spominjate? Spoznali sva se preko predavanja o Instagramu, ki ga je vodila. Opazila je moje delo in navezala kontakt z mano. Od takrat naprej sva neprestano v stiku. Sue je vedno polno enkratnih idej in ena izmed mnogih je tudi ta. Prišla je do ideje, da naredim ilustracijo z nautičnimi elementi, otroki in labradorcem za skupni projekt. Kaj več o tem izveste kasneje ko bo stvar pripeljana do konca.

Po slikah lahko vidite kako je ilustracija nastajala, od skice do končnega dela.

The illustration was created at the initiative of Sue B. Zimmerman. Do you still remember her? We met through classes on Instagramu. She noticed my work, and then she contact with me. From then on, we are staying in touch. Sue is always full of great ideas and this is one of the many. She came up with the idea to do an illustration with nautical elements, children and Labrador for a project. More about that I will tell you when we were finnished.

You can see a little process how illustration grow, from the sketch to final work.

 

Have a Great Summer

Vse se je tako hitro dogajalo, da nisem uspela sporočiti na odhajam na počitnice. Verjamem, da vsi, ki ste me spremljali na drugih omrežjih kot so, Instagram, Facebook ali Etsy, ste to izvedeli. 

Ob vseh teh lepih stvari, ki so se mi dogajale, priznam da mi je bilo težko pustiti moje delo in oditi. Ko sem bila končno na počitnicah pa si nisem mogla predstavljati, da bi ostala doma. Bilo je čudovito. Edina napak je bila, da so bile prekratke. 

Vsi vi, ki vas počitnice še čakajo, vam želim da bodo lepe, predvsem pa da bodo take, ki si jih želite. Vsem skupaj pa lepo poletje!

It all happened so fast that I could not tell you that I'm leaving on vacation. I believe that all of you who fiollow me on the other social media, such as, Instagram, Facebook or Etsy, you saw it. 

With all these beautiful things that are happening to me, I admit it's been hard to leave my job and leave. When I was finally on vacation I could not imagine to stay at home. It was wonderful. The only fault was that they were too short. 

All of you that you are still waiting holidays, I wish you to be nice and the way how you imagine.

And all of you wish a great Summer!

Embrace Your Love

Že nekaj časa je, odkar sem naredila skico za ilustracijo, ki pa je čakala na primeren čas, da jo obudim. Ilustracijo sem končala, naredila kratek video kako rišem rožice in ga objavila na instagramu . Ogledate si lahko tudi video kako je potekal proces nastajanja ilustracije. Vse to je na mojem instagramu, nekaj malega pa je tudi tukaj.

Objemi svojo ljubezen, izkoristi trenutek, ker v resnici je to edino pomembno.

Some time now when I made a sketch, but now was the perfect momemnt to make it in illustration. Illustration is finished and I made a short video how I draw little flowers and also a working process video. Both of them you can see on my Instagram.

Embrace your loved ones, every day! Seize the moment!

It is all about moments in your life

Zadnje dni (tedne) sem delala ves čas, cel dan, do poznega večera. Če nisem risala, sem fotografirala, pripravljala slike, urejala spletno trgovino, še bolj pomembno pa, bila sem zaposlena z vsemi napotki zadnjega predavanja o marketingu. Stvari so veliko bolj enostavne ko veš za pravi način in še lepše je ko te zaradi tega najdejo ljudje, ki cenijo tvoje delo. Hvala vsem vam, ki me spremljate že od vsega začetka in dobrodošli vsi ostali, ki ste se mi na novo pridružili.

Pride pa čas, ko potrebuješ nekaj trenutkov zase, ne glede kako uživaš v svojem delu. Z veseljem sem zagrabila priložnost in se odpravila ven, v gozd. Tam kjer se čarobnost začne. Tam kjer se pišejo pravljice in rodijo nove ideje. Seveda sem vse to delila z mojim malim prijateljem Benom.

Last days (a would say weeks) I was working all the time, all day until late evening. I drew, photographed, preparing images, editing my online store, but more importantly, I was busy with all the information of the last course for marketing. Things are much more simple when you know the right way and even better is when, because of this, you find people who appreciate your work. Thanks to all of you who follow me from the beginning and support me and welcome all the others who have joined me in last days.

It comes a time when you need a few moments for yourself, no matter how you enjoy your work. I grabbed the opportunity and went out into the woods. That's where the magic begins. That's where the writing fairy tales and give birth to new ideas. Of course, I have share this with my little friend Ben.

A Beautiful Gardener's Journal by Rose

Moja dnevna (če sem popolnoma iskrena tedenska) rutina je bloganje, ne toliko pisanje svojega (na tem potrebujem še veliko vaje), kot branje blogov iz celega sveta. Okno v svet se mi odpre v trenutku ko sedem pred računalnik. Ena izmed mojih ljubših revij je UPPERCASE, čeprav si je še nisem lastila. Občudujem jo preko mojega okna v svet in si predstavljam kako fino bi jo bilo imeti zares v rokah. H krati pa se potapljam v UPPERCASE-ovem blogu, uživam v njihovih predstavitvah, člankih, umetnikih.

*
My daily (if I'm completely honest weekly) routine is blogging, not so much writing my own, but reading blogs from around the world. My window to the world is opened when I sit on computer. One of my favorite magazines is UPPERCASE, although I've never have it in my hands. I admire the magazine and imagine how fine it would be to have it also in my hands not just looking by the computer. I love Uppercase blog, I enjoy their presentations, articles of artists.

Pomlad je bila polna vrtnarjenja, rožic, sadik, zelenjave in zato mi je v oči padla objava vrtnarskega dnevnika  Rose Jocham. Zaljubila sem se v njene ilustracije, vzorce. Običajno me privlačijo ilustracije, ki so popolnoma nasprotje mojemu stilu in tukaj je podobno. Nežni akvarelčki, barvna skala in simpatični rokopis, težko je da ti ne bi bilo všeč. Sem velik ljubitelj vzorcev in lahko bi jih opazovala ves čas. Rosejini vzorci so prekrasni in mislim, da bodo všeč tudi vam.

Objavo o Rose Jocham si lahko preberete tudi na UPPERCASE-ovem blogu. Obiščite njeno spletno stran in ne pozabite na Uppercase!

Spring was full of gardening, flowers, seedlings, vegetables and I saw a post of gardenest journal's of Rose Jocham. I fell in love in her illustrations, designs. I usually attracted to illustrations that are completely opposite of my style and here is similar. Gentle watercolours, color chart and cute handwriting is difficult that you would not like it. I'm a big fan of patterns and can watched them at all time. Rose patterns are beautiful and I think you will like it.

Publication of Rose Jocham you can read on UPPERCASE blog. Visit her website you will fell in love!

Instagram Marketing With Sue B. Zimmerman On Creative Live

Prejšnji teden sem se na Creative Live udeležila predavanja za Instagram marketing za mala podjetja. Če ne poznate spletne strani Creative Live, je čas da jo spoznate. On-line lahko spremljate izjemna predavanja, ki jih vodijo veliki specialisti o fotografiji, podjetništvu, glasbi in še in še. Toliko uporabnih informacij težko dobite na enem mestu in vsega tega kar sem se v zadnjem času sama naučila pri njih, mi nobena šola ni dala. Pa sem se v zadnjih letih veliko izobraževala in naučila in končala dve fakulteti. Znanje ti nikoli nihče ne more vzeti in je vredno vložiti vase. Znova in znova.

*

Last week attended on Creative Live the course Instagram Marketing for Small Businesses. If you do not know the website Creative Live, it's time for you to visit. You can watch On-line courses with outstanding experts for business, music, photography, and so on... There are so  much useful information, with them, I learned a lot.

Predavanje Instagram marketing je vodila Sue B. Zimmerman. Izjemna ženska, polna dobre energije in predvsem odličnih nasvetov. Prikovala me je za tri dni pred računalnik, kar je precej težko glede na moje delo. Spremljala nisem samo v živo predavanja, ampak tudi vse ponovitve. Poleg vsega dobrega, kar sem izvedela, je bilo prvo prijetno presenečenje. Sue je na predavanju, na Creative Live, pokazala mojo ilustracijo. Bila sem presrečna. Zelo cenim njo in njeno delo in to je bilo zame ogromna pohvala, da je izbrala mojo ilustracijo. 

*

The course Instagram Marketing for Small Businesses was teaching expert for marketing Sue B. Zimmerman. Amazing women, full of great energy and even better knowledge. I was at the computer three days, all the time. And this is not eazy, because I have so much work to do and no one else can't do it beside me. I watched the course in live and also all rebroadcasting.

Sue gave me such a great surprise, I was thrilled. Think I stopped breathing for a moment. She showed my illustration on Creative Live. This make me so happy.. obviously! I very much appreciate her and her work and that was a huge compliment for me to chose my illustration.

Kasneje sva se s Sue dogovorili, da naredim ilustracijo nje za Creative Live in bilo mi je v veliko veselje. Hvaležna sem Sue za vse enkratne nasvete in pohvale mojemu delu. To mi neizmerno veliko pomeni.

Later on I made an illustration for Sue and it was my pleasure. I am grateful to Sue for all the great advices and her compliments for my work. It means a lot to me. Thank you Sue!
I can not wait to see her again.

DIY or How I Made a Poodle Brooch

Vsi, ki me redno spremljate že veste, da imam malega kosmatinčka, da sem navdušena nad živalmi, še posebej pa so moje srce osvoji psi. To je bila moja velika otroška želja, ki se mi je (sem si jo) izpolnila pred dvema letoma. Torej ni čudno, da se mi po glavi pletejo razno razni kužki, ki so prijatelji mojemu Benu oziroma jih redno srečujem. 

Pred mesecem dni sva z Benom začela z agilitijem, kjer je glavna šefica lepa črna pudljica. Elegantna, hitra in živahna uspešno premaguje vse ovire. In tako je nastala želja (potreba), da jo spravim na papir. Z njo vred je nastala tudi Benova prijateljica, ampak o njej enkrat kasneje (če pozorno pogledate slike, jo boste zasledili). 

*

You all know that I have a small little furry dog, that I am impressed by the animals, especially dogs win my heart. That dog was my big (from childhood) wish which I fulfillh to two years ago. So it is no wonder that in my head are allways dogs,  especially the one who are friends with Ben or which regularly meet on walk. 

A month ago started with Ben agility, where the main boss is a beautiful black girl poodle. Elegant, fast and vibrant successfully overcomes all obstacles. So I draw her and I also created Ben's girlfriend, but about her will tell you some another time (if you look closely one of the bottom picture, you'll see her).

Ali vas zanima kako je nastala broška? Že pred časom sem veliko skecirala in iskala podobo, ki bi mi ustrezala. Prilagam samo zadnjo skico (nekatere sem že pred časom objavila na svoji facebook strani, če bi jih želeli videti).

*

Are you interested how I made a brooch? Some time ago I did a lot sketching and looking for an image that would suit me. Showing you only the last sketch (some time ago I posted on my facebook page more of them if you would like to see).

Ko je končna podoba zaključena, ilustracijo narišem v akvarel tehniki.

*

Once the final design is completed, draw an illustration in watercolour technique.

Ilustracijo skeniram in jo obdelam v računalniku, sprintam na posebno folijo, ki služi za tisk na tekstil.

*
Scan illustration and process it in the computer, print on special sheet, which allows me to printed design on the fabric.

Običajno h krati naredim različne motive živali.

*
Usually do different animal motives.

Blago izrežem, zašijem in napolnim s polnilom. Na koncu prišijem še sponko, s katero se broška pritrdi na majico, pulover, torbico, vrečko..

*
Cut the fabrick, sew and fill with filling. At the end sew the clip.

O svojih dogodivščinah pripoveduje svojim prijateljem, ki pridno čakajo doma na nove lastnike. 

Želim vam lep začetek tedna in naj traja!
