Leighton's Honey

Seriously. God bless Martha Stewart and her crafts templates. I had no idea where i was going to find a bear until I walked into Big Lots! 2 bucks and all the felt/paper flower templates -with materials were like 2 bucks. Crafts are fuunn..

The bees, and the stopwatch are courtesy of stock exchange, because seriously? The rest is my photography. LOL yesss that is my chin and lips!! I'm still working on the copy for the stopwatch one...

PHOTOSHOP DISASTER -Film festival edition

So, you know, I usually keep quiet about stuff I see that is kind of out of whack. However, I really couldn't this time. I don't have an issue with super skinny models, I could care less. I know they really are just hangers, objects for designers to display their wares on and have nothing to do with me. I love fashion, so I give it a free pass. HOWEVER –this. is. just. too much. Please make note of the model below. Click the picture to get a bigger image if you must. Now, look at her waist. Please do. It kind of looks like maybe a stripe of her bathing suit, but alas, no. HER WAIST AND SOME OF HER BACK have been photoshopped out. Now, ok, over zealous fashion mag retoucher, I will give him a pass BUT FOR FUCKS SAKE, THIS IS FOR A FILM FESTIVAL. ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? REALLY???????? who did this?? cos really, they either suck or have a really bad case of body dysmorphic disorder that they are projecting on this poor model that now looks like an alien.



Shame on you Miami International Film Festival, shame on you!

Wolfman? –Meeehhh

Enough said. The only real highlight of the movie was this lady right here... Geraldine Chaplin...

NICE!

McQueen

Today Alexander McQueen was found dead in his apartment. He committed suicide. You know, I really could give a fig about celebrity deaths. I mean, death is the name of the game isn't it? were all moving towards it every day. But the thing is, this guy was actually a real artist. Like, for real. He could bring worlds to life through costume. As a highly visual person this impacts me more than say, Michael Jackson dying. You can hear his music all over the place. But visual things are in a way, more finite? I don't know. All I know is that this makes me sad. Very sad for the first time in a long while.

Tilt Shift -yes, these are my own work.

Some practice pictures for tiltshift.

Bookit

I'm making a Miami book for class. But I don't know how I feel about it... ugh, I need to think about this some more...

And today's mood is: Nostalgic

I miss Cartagena...
Damn the Love in the Time of Cholera Soundtrack...

Disappointing...

The day sports fans have been waiting for has come and gone, along with it's advertising. I have to say, I was quite disappointed. No I did not watch the game. I don't "do" sports -unless it's the world cup. I am glad the saints won though. Anyway, all the ads are online, and I have -unfortunately- watched them. Nothing genuinely funny or fun, nothing groundbreaking, nothing provocative. Just a bunch of man children complaining that they had to grow up. Bitch bitch bitch, whine whine whine, take back your spine/pants -BULLSHIT. Seriously, are male advertising creatives that disgruntled at having to grow up or having to deal with women that they WASTED THE BEST PRIME TIME SPOT OF THE YEAR bitching about stupid shit instead of pushing the envelope? gah. If shit like this keeps happening, I'm going to have to take the route pepsi did this year and totally even forgo the commercials next year... sheeesshhh....

-the only one i liked was the dorito's one (pictured above) "keep your hands off my mamma, and keep your hands off my doritos".. THAT! was funny.

Frustration

You see that picture? What the hell are those jars called?? I keep thinking they are stands with glass lids, but all I find are cake stands or jar stands.. and that is no good...

Photoshop Class

Is too much fun!

Cool -Ginko Papers!

Every time I find a site I like, I right click to find more or less what they are using (namely, Flash or not). Today I came across a really cute site that does not use flash. It looks like an animated gif, but I'm not quite sure. I need to confer with a fellow conspirator about that. But still! and not just is it super cute, but the products -I'm a sucker for pretty. Anyway, I just needed to make a little note of it for myself.. The site is for ginkopapers. Their logo is super cute too..

Thinking about a side project to a main project.

FIX IT!

For weeks now, my Adium cannot connect to my MSN messenger contact list. Allegedly, it is a "bug". DAMMIT. Seriously, WTF Microsoft.. WTF!
