Basically one month later I'm back. With thousands of things happening at the same time it's quite hard to keep an agenda.
Our Airbnb apartments are being quite requisited, which is good, but also means hard to predict days.
I'm also planning my collection of paper jewelry collection and taking many classes... so: big news coming soon! =)
To relax a bit of all the formalities from Fashion Illustration classes, I've been creating some illustrations for a couple of figure skaters and the feedback is being so nice! ♥
04.12 was Kaitlyn Weaver's birthday! She's a beautiful and skilled ice dancer from Team Canada!
The inspiration came from Kaitlyn and Andrew's short program:
And she was so sweet in her answer! I got a combo: like + comment + stories' post! ♥
04.15 was the last day of Yuzuru's ice show Continues ~ With Wings ~ and also the b-day of Javier Fernández! He skated a bit of his Impossible Dream program and everyone sang happy birthday to him. My choice of outfit was obviously his costume for the gala program Super Javi, coreographed by the - also super - Kurt Browning. ♥
"I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life" ♪
In the end, Javi himself probably didn't even notice my post. Buuuuuut! A sweet sweet sweeeet heart from Belgium did! ♥
Thank you so much for the love, Jorik Hendrickx!! ♥
He has probably no idea, but since he skated to Il Divo's Aranjuez version, his base of fans here in Brazil did grow a lot! Something I'll let him know on his birthday post, also coming soon!
Last, but not least: Javier Raya! ♥ He's been through such difficult times! I'm so glad he's recovering his heart and emotions! Also, on this post there's also a short video with the illustration steps!
Javi, thank you so much for your efforts, your inspirational words and all the love!!
#HappyMonday, everyone! ♥
