His Favorite Color was Yellow

One of my liberal arts this semester is Modern Art. If you are a normal two year FIT student you are required to take 2 History of Art classes. I choose Modern Art because I wanted to explore more this subject and not just say that I go to the MoMa to see art that's modern.

One of the artist we study about is Van Gogh. I'm pretty sure everybody has heard this name

and in some point of your life you have seen Van Gogh's famous Starry Night. But there is more to this guy. He was extremely emotional and lived a very short life. He basically became crazy and killed himself.

Basically I'm writing this post because I can't stop thinking about Van Gogh's sunflowers....

and there is more where this came from.

There is a full series of them.

Long Live the Queen!

Today was a bittersweet day in the fashion world. It was the beginning of NY Fashion Week and the end of an amazing designer, Alexander McQueen. My friend Jorge and I decided to go down to the w.14th st. McQueen store this afternoon to pay respects to this memorable iconic fashion designer that has been great inspiration in my life these past few years.

RIP Lee McQueen

Lamparas

Lately I've been searching and collecting pictures that inspire my senses. Lamps or "lamparas" (as we call them in spanish) have caught my eye recently. I like the shades of colors they create and how they make you feel welcome and cozy when you enter a room.

What inspires you lately?
