“AND, A CADILLAC TO PUT IT ALL IN!”

I decided to paint this illustration of Adrianne Ho after seeing Jake Davis’s test shot video on Hypebeast. Plus, seeing the same Supreme jacket hanging off of Vashtie’s coat rack every time I stepped into the office reminded me that I really needed to finish this piece.

You can always count on a good ol’ varsity jacket to transform any outfit into a classic look!

Hello dear VIOLETTE readers!

My good friend Houston is in the process of rebuilding his bike, so I decided to make a quick pit stop in BK to check out the progress he’s made so far. Once I got to there, I started snapping random photos of the garage and some of the bikes. A change of scenery was much needed, since I’ve recently been struck with artist’s block.

While the fairy was working, I whipped out my moleskine and started sketching some of the vintage bikes. I have to admit, I really enjoyed the quietness because it allowed me to fall into full relaxation. As an art student, I’m always challenging myself to find new ways to become inspired. Who would’ve known that a garage would bring me so many great ideas.
