The Commission Project.

September 5, 2011

So there is this guy named Paul Ferney who paints pictures of a photos that are posted to him. It can be a photo of anything, your dog, your shoes, your sandwich. You just place your order and he paints it up and ships it off to you. By the sounds of it, there are limited spots available, but I don’t blame him for doing that, if he didn’t he would be painting out his wazoo till the imaginary cows come home. He calls this The Commission Project and I think it’s damn awesome.

I would love to have this nutcase picture made into a painting hee. Hey, we should start our own Commissions Project. We send each other photos and whether you can paint/draw or not, you send one back haaa! I pity the poor fool who gets me as a partner. If you would like a painting of you looking like a squat burn victim, then hold thumbs that you get me.

Coco Chanel…

August 30, 2011

When I first posted this photo I thought it was of the actual Coco Chanel, but it looks like I was wrong. These are photos out of Karl Lagerfeld’s 10 minute silent movie about Coco Chanel. Looks like he did quite a beautiful job. Has anyone seen it? Sorry, this post is quite random, just really like these photos xx

Brooke Shaden is a fine art photographer who lives in Los Angeles. Her photographs are almost like paintings, I love how they become almost magical and story like through her treatment of them.

awesome stuff, photos

Bike gang. LETS.

August 20, 2011

Shane and I woke up at 7 this morning to go for a bike ride and a coffee. Felt like a kid again, a kid that likes chai lattes and extra foamed milk.

Imagine how rad a bike gang would be?! Shane’s cousins in CT literally have a gang that meet every Sunday morning and ride down to the Biscuit Mill for coffee and chats. Must be so rad to see them coming down the road. I think I would move to Cape Town just to be part of that noise. If we had to start one here though, I reckon we should be quite hard core, make cars go around us on the road, scowl at people with their friendly dogs, maybe spit every now and then, do wheelies, you know bad ass stuff like that, like bad ass people do.

Well anyway, sorry about the no post on Friday, my blogs was acting up like a 3 year old in a library, true story.

Instant.

July 29, 2011

The other day I was going through some of my instamax photos and I found these 3 pictures that I took. In a few years time they’re going to look even more vintage than they do now, especially the first and last one. Flip man, wish I could shoot everything with my Instamax, I defintely need to use it more.

How cool does Shane’s cousin look? (last photo) She’s like a charater straight out of Ferris Buller’s day off. You do all remember that movie right? Please say yes, if you guys don’t then that means i’m oooooold. Blegh. But seriously if you haven’t, watch it. Bam bam a chicka chicka (you will know what the hell this is if you’ve watched the movie, I think hahaa).
