You don't have to be on vacation to feel like you're on one. This Jungle Paradise print encompasses the feeling of relaxing on the beach underneath the shade of a big palm tree. Available here.

Art Institute of Chicago
I had a chance to explore the Art Institute of Chicago last week on a quiet day.
The museum wasn't packed at all and I found myself alone in many areas (which I love!)
Here are some pictures that I took, playing with chiaroscuro. High contrast black and
white photos are my fav.

New Stationery
So excited to receive my new personalized stationery set in the mail. I love sending random
snail mail hellos and these beauties will do the job. The back of each card has my favorite
Parrot Paradise pattern for a modern jungle vibe.

Baha'i Temple
I was really excited when a friend visiting Chicago suggested that we check out the Baha'i Temple to view its gorgeous architecture. Driving up to the building, I was awestruck with how beautiful and unexpected it looks. I loved the contrast of the white stone against the intense blue sky that day. They have a great information center, I'm surprised with how little I knew about Baha'i faith.
This a model of the building!

Radish Experiment
Last summer after my move to Chicago, I started making regular trips to farmers markets and was awe struck with the different varieties of radishes. They are so vibrant and come in beautiful shades of purple, red and pink. Not to mention that they are delicious and pleasantly bitter. I noticed while cleaning them, their dye would wash away in the sink. So I decided to experiment and created splatter swatches that I can scan and use as texture in my artwork. Here is the result.
