Layla EO - This is a signed print of my mixed media sketch called " A Night on 31st St" - a sketch I did sketch to remember one of my fave local spots in NYC.. they just closed permanently because of rent increases. There was an era where the only thing that made me feel grounded was going to Yaya's alone at night, getting an eliopsomo, bringing it to my favorite park around the corner (Athens Square Park I will always love you) and listening to Green Eyes by Erykah Badu for like 3 hours on loop - I would literally do it like 3-4 times a week. The people who owned the place were always so cool too, as a Jordanian I always felt that Mediterranean European Arab solidarity when I was there lol. Special memories for real! I guess you know you're finding your place in a city when you've been there long enough to have places special enough to mourn, and this is really one of those for me. Love to Yaya's and to Astoria forever!

Ciao a tutti! Eccoci pronti a un'altra settimana con Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog! Oggi il tema che vi proponiamo è IT'S A FRAME UP! Non è difficile capire cosa vi chiediamo di inserire nei vostri lavori! Seconda settimana per la nostra Designer Spotlight di Maggio Dr Sonia aka Cards Crafts, Kids Projects , QUI il suo blog, fateci un salto, è pieno di ispirazioni! Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog. This week the theme is It’s A Frame Up ! It is not difficult to understand what we ask you to include in your work! Second week for our May Designer Spotlight Dr Sonia aka Cards Crafts, Kids Projects , HERE her blog full of inspirations! Questa settimana sono rimasta perfettamente dentro la mia comfort zone, avevo voglia di creare un lavoro che aderisse esattamente al mio stile preferito ispirato come sempre dal Maestro, Tim Holtz! Ho scelto di partire dal ritratto che amo di più tra i Found Relatives, questa ragazza meravigliosa con degli occhi spettacolari! La cornice proviene dal pack Cabinet Card frames, l'ho alterata stendendo uno strato di Ranger Collage medium matte col pennello e successivamente qualche tocco di Prima Marketing VINTAGE GOLD Art Alchemy Metallique Wax , rigorosamente con le dita! Con le dita perchè l'effetto mi piace molto di più! This week I've been perfectly inside my comfort zone, I wanted to create a project that would adhere exactly to my favorite style inspired by Tim Holtz! I chose to start from the portrait I love most among Found Relatives, this wonderful girl with spectacular eyes! The frame comes from Idea-ology Cabinet Card Frames pack, I altered it by spreading a layer of Ranger Collage medium Matte with the brush and a little touch of Prima Marketing VINTAGE GOLD Art Alchemy Metallique Wax with my fingers! Absolutely with fingers because the effect is wonderful! Nella foto sopra potete vedere da vicino un particolare del background. Ho lavorato con I Distress oxides su un foglio di Ranger Heavystock, poi ho utilizzato la fustella da embossing Floral Texture Fades. Ho evidenziato l'embossing con Distress Oxides, Walnut stain e sopra un altro tocco di cera dorata. In the picture above you can see a background detail. I worked with Distress Oxides on a Heavystock Ranger sheet, then I used Tim Holtz Sizzix FLORAL Texture Fades Embossing Folder . I highlight embossing with Walnut stain Distress oxides and over another touch of Prima Wax. Ho attinto dal pack Idea-ology BOTANICAL Layers Paperie gli abbellimenti, fiori e farfalle. Ho colorato entrambi con Distress Crayons, i fiori in origine sono bianchi, ma volevo qualcosa che staccasse un pochino e vivacizzasse il progetto! Spiced marmalade,Rusty hinge e Peacock feather i tre colori che ho usato. I used the Idea-ology BOTANICAL Layer Papers kit for embellishments, flowers and butterflies. I colored them both with Distress Crayons, the flowers originally was white, but I wanted something more contrasting! Spiced marmalades, Rusty hinge and Peacock feather the three colors I used. Per la base del lavoro , per intenderci quella con le cuciture , ho finalmente attinto al nuovo paper stash Memoranda di Tim Holtz, meraviglioso! For the base of the work, to be clear that with the stitches, I used for the first time new paper stash Memoranda by Tim Holtz, fabulous! Ora tocca a voi!

Through night dreams, through events half understood and half remembered...” ― Clarissa Pinkola Estés She is the spirit within our spirit, the root of our instinctual nature. She is both the passion of creativity and the ancient knowing. Our connection to her is the beginning of our beginning, and in order to live authentically, we must reconnect to her wisdom and her truth. It is she who runs free at midnight underneath the moon, she who tends the bones. The doors to her are few but precious. She is the mystery of moon, both our desire and our power. And though she will not be chained and, if abandoned, will not linger in misery but instead will wander far, if you are still, you will hear her calling you from within. It is our deepest truth to listen to that call, to find and reclaim her, for it is she who carries the keys to our wholeness. Hidden images are incorporated for the viewer to discover on her own. The original print was created at an astrologically favorable time with magickally appropriate aspects. The art works as a talisman to incorporate her shadow soul energies to awaken the dormant divine feminine within you. It is, in and of itself, a unique and one of a kind work of art which will delight and inspire for years to come. This listing is for one 16X20 poster print, on high-quality, heavy matte stock. The posters are securely packaged in a heavy, cardboard tube. Perfect for framing, this poster is LARGE, and will serve as a perfect frontispiece for any room. NOTE: If you are purchasing multiple posters I *do* offer a combined shipping discount. Because posters must be shipped in a tube, I cannot combine shipping costs with standard prints, which are mailed separately. Please allow 1 to 2 weeks delivery.

Yaya Bey is one of R&B's most exciting storytellers. Using a combination of ancestral forces and her own self-actualization, the singer/songwriter seamlessly navigates life's hardships and joyful moments through music. Bey's 2022 album, 'Remember Your North Star', captures this emotional rollercoaster with a fusion of soul, jazz, reggae, afrobeat and hip-hop that feeds the soul. Disc 11. Intro - Yaya Bey2.
