New Bouquet drawing inspired by Coriander Girl

I am longing for Spring so decided to draw some flowers today.
For inspiration I turned to a photo of a gorgeous rustic bouquet created
by local florist Alison Westlake of Coriander Girl.

Here is the gorgeous photo by Trish Papadakos that inspired my drawing. 
As you can see I recreated a lot of the flowers + leaves in the photo but changed the container.

String Theory

Last Thursday I met Meghan Price one of the designers behind String Theory.
I discovered this company this past November at The One of a Kind show where they stood out like a breath of fresh - modern looking - air! I really love their scarves and shawls - so graphic, fresh, and smart looking. Inspirational.

Thomas O'Brien + AERO


The book (which matches very well with my Kuba cloth I think!)

I'm reading this book right now and loving it.
Aero is both a studio and a shop founded by Thomas O'Brien and Bill Sofield (who went on to design the Soho Grand) It's been located in SOHO in various locations since 1992.

I just adore Thomas O Brien's interior design sense.
I love his warm palette, mix of vintage + modern - his use of elegant things in a very relaxed, non formal way and his layering.
His bedroom! So layered and lived in.
The aesthetic of Aero is a titch refined for my taste so for me the best photos in the book are intimate pics of the various apts Thomas has lived in over the years - such as his bedroom above.
Very juicy. Highly recommended.
