Louboutin inspired decor

Imagine walking into a room where your red sole shoes match your pillow?

I heard about people that like to match their shoes and their bags or match shoes and belts, but, I have never heard of people that match their Louboutin with the decor of their house.

Weird, right?! However, somehow, it makes sense, from the romantic to the rocker style...just take a look.

Art: Jen Ramos

When I was about fifteen years old I remember going to Michael's and buying a bunch of canvas, brushes, and paints. I got home and started using my new toys, I did a few paintings for my mom and told her that maybe I should be an artist...my paintings basically consisted of abstract struck around the canvas creating something that, I believed, was modern and very artistic. Of course, I did not become an artist and my mom doesn't have my paintings anymore.

Yesterday as I was looking around in the internet, I finally realized why I didn't become a painter...I found the work from Jen Ramos! Her paintings are exactly what I always imagined but could never do. It is incredible, when I saw it was like she was inside my head but with a good hand to make it happen.

Anyways, if you have not seen her works check it out here. The color scheme is so diverse that I am sure you will find THAT piece that was missing in your space.

P.S.: Don't forget to check out the prints too!

Decor tips: BLACK and WHITE living room

Deciding on a color scheme when decorating the living room can be a very difficult task. If you decide to use too much color it can become tacky, if you use less color it can be too blend...so what to do?! 

My tip is not to worry about it! Use colors that you like, remember that you are the one that will be arriving home every day and spending the most time at your living room. 

And if you happen to like BLACK and WHITE; no problem! Check out some options to create a BLACK and White living room that is far away from being boring.

Z Gallerie San Francisco

Hey People,

Life has been crazy, I just moved from Chicago to San Francisco and it is really difficult to find a place here. Besides being way more expensive than Chicago the architecture here is so different and the places are a little smaller than I expected. 

I am planning to write a post about it so you can better understand what I am saying. Anyways, I found a place and we moved from the hotel last Friday. The place is nice but what sold me was the location... I am close to everything: downtown, Marina, Pier 39, Polk Street...

Yesterday, as I was walking around and getting used to the area I found a Z Gallerie here. I love Z Gallerie and the one we had at Chicago closed, needless to say I am happy to find one here. So I thought about giving you some tips and putting together some pieces from the store so you all can have lots of ideas.

Art: Nathan Walsh

I recently came across the work of Nathan Walsh and was impressed to say the least.
At first I thought to myself "Oh, a picture of Chicago!" and then I realized...it was not a picture but a painting!
Then I thought, "Ok, so the artist takes a nice picture and uses it as reference for size, color, etc." Wrong again!!!!!
The process Nathan Walsh uses to create such realistic art works is incredible. Each work takes about 3 to 4 months to complete and it starts with just a box of pencils and eraser. Walsh sketches what he sees and later uses it as reference in his studio, where he alters proportions to create the most realistic scene.

"By using simple mathematical ratios I can begin to describe concrete form within my picture plane. Over a period of time I will draw and redraw buildings, manipulating their height, width or nature in relation to other pictorial elements. By introducing spatial recession to these elements I aim to present a world the viewer can enter into and move around."

Isn't it amazing?! Now, imagine one his works hanging in your living room... it creates a nice modern ambiance

 Take a look at the process and his final work.
