t's been way too long since i wanted to share this one but for reasons hard to pinpoint i just realised i haven't done so yet!
So, i think now that the weather started to brighten, the days are long-lived and the thoughts of a serene white and chilly winter morning are even more further away than a seashore born and raised seagull is to a mountain top, is the best time! :D
It regards the super cool and enjoyable collaboration of Miss wonderful Leanne Mailly from Vaute Couture and moi for the creation of the Vaute Couture artwork:
We had lots n lots of fun on this project last summer and both Leanne n i came to be very satisfied n happy with the final outcome! I really gave a piece of my heart in this artwork, cause Leanne was so sweet to work with and i wanted to really capture her desire n dream on paper for her! Also, the cause and goal of her blooming business is very dear to my heart too!
She makes awesome fashionable coats that we all love but with great emphasis on vegan, eco-consious, fair trade methods and materials, extra friendly on our animal friends and inspired by open source designs submitted by everyone, us the fans!
The dark hair girl is wearing her magenta winter coat and her friend Mr Opposum is wearing his favourite white n grey opposum-made fur, both to withstand the cold, deep n long winter of Chicago, where Leanne and Vaute Coutoure are located!
Go drool over the amazing custom made eco-coats over at Vaute Couture and soon Leanne's very exciting online shop will be open that will host some fine artists and whatever else surprise Leanne might think of :)
The Vaute Couture opposum artwork as well as some more of mine will be available for purchase there too. Enjoy!!
♥Lots of love to Leanne!♥
Bear hugs,
