Hope you're having a lovely week so far! I wanted to thank you for the lovely comments ♥ reading them always make my day. I've been very busy working on several projects at the same time (I'll let you know very soon), sometimes I wish there were more hours in the day. I've been designing most of the time, editing, choosing fabrics, etc. Those things take time, especially if you do everything by yourself. I took these pictures yesterday night, that's why they came out a little dark, but I still wanted to share them with you. These are some of my designs for Fall-Winter 2011. The first picture is my artwork, pretty much a mix media work I created inspired by New York adding some whimsical touches (I drew and painted the face of the girl. I used watercolors). The important part of this little collection is that I didn't use any computer program, absolutely everything is hand made. I love working with computer programs as well because I think they're essential for every designer, but this time I wanted to prove myself that you don't always have to depend on the computer to deliver a quality work product, in fact doing it by hand encourages you to be even more creative. About the materials, I used different things, most of them recycled materials, trims, fabrics, vintage, etc. This book has several pages with my designs on them drawn and painted by hand as well as little collage I created for every page. Hope you like this little sneak peek :)

Espero que estén teniendo una linda semana! Quería agradecerles por los lindos comentarios ♥ que siempre me alegran el día! Mil gracias!! He estado super ocupada trabajando en diferentes projectos a la vez (ya les contaré prontito), a veces quisiera que hubieran mas horas en eldía.. He estado diseñando la mayoría del tiempo, editando, escogiendo telas, etc. Esas cosas toman tiempo, especialmente si haces todo tu sola. Tome estas fotos ayer por la noche, por eso salieron un poquito oscuras, pero igual quería compartirlas con ustedes. Estos son algunos de mis diseños para Otoño-Invierno 2011. La primera foto es de inspiración, es un trabajo de "mix media" que hice inspirado en New York con toques eclecticos (Dibujé y pinté la cara de la chica. Utilicé acuarelas) La parte importante de esta pequeña colección es que absolutamente todo esta hechoa mano, pero eso no quiere decir que no me guste trabajar con programas de computadora, por el contrario me encanta trabajar con ellos porquepienso que son parte esencial en el trabajo de un diseñador, pero esta vez quería probar que no siempre tienes que depender de la computadorapara crear una colección con la misma calidad. Pienso que hacerlo a mano, te motiva a desarrollar más tu creatividad. En cuanto a los materiales, use diferentes cosas desde materiales reciclados hasta telas, aplicaciones y cosas vintage. Esta colección es como un libro grande con diferentespáginas, en ellas estan plasmados mis diseños dibujados y pintados a mano asi como también, collages creados por mi en el centro de cada página. Espero que les guste este pequeño adelanto :)
