Eyeful

The last time I shared some scans was of the book Rock Faces and time sure goes by cos that was more than a year ago! And you guessed it right, new scanssss coming right up.

I finished Patterns by Orla Kiely yesterday and scanned A LOT of the book. It’s a very simple read about her career, her way of working and her brand, basically. Although I don’t identify that strongly with her brand’s aesthetic, there’s still so much to love about her work and her consistency. Plus it looks deceptively easy to make a pattern but we all know, the simplest designs are the hardest to achieve. I do want to quote something she said in the afterword, “Increasingly, I find myself considering the consequences and impact of producing products for an already cluttered world. My hope is that I am always associated with products that will be valued, cherished and not discarded.”

Now scroll away! The details are on Flickr so click on the images to find out more.

It would be nice to drink from this mug, don’t you think? I just can’t deal with costly international shipping.

Sleepy lazy hungry

I was just thinking to myself last night, how nice it is that people still come here, check out my photos and read what I have to share. In the past months, I’ve been adding new blogs to my feed and they are all these fantastic, inspiring people who seem to be doing so much and doing it so well too. Sometimes reading all that gets me down but at the same time, it picks me up?! I know it’s a me-problem. But I just wanted to say it’s nice to know you guys are still around, that’s all! And have a wonderful weekend guys!

You a quack

I bought the 3-pack lomography colour negative 800 some time back and got one roll developed yesterday. The colours didn’t turn out as whackadoodle as I was hoping it to be, considering how drastic the colours turned out when I used redscale film. But! I do love this one photo, of this ducky fella!

hey fella

I have him on my computer’s wallpaper and I like him so very much. (I’m going with the idea that it’s a he)
