Little paradise hidden in the woods.

Most people like beaches, big towns like Rome etc. I personally love visiting new places but most of all, I love forests. Forests are places of natural beauty. While in towns we see something beautiful built by humans, in forests we see nothing but the creation of nature. They're just places of serenity, tranquility and freedom. I always loved long walks in the forests. Last time I was in Poland we went to sort of like a family reunion. I haven't seen these people in ages so we all decided to have a barbecue. Little did I know that my uncle lives in a paradise, deeply hidded in the heart of a forest. They have a little mam-made lake beside them and the whole place is honestly like heaven. We spent the whole day in there and I felt like the happiest person alive to get stay in there for the day. And I can only imagine how amazing it is to live there all the time. So now officially, getting a house in a forest is going onto my "Things to do before I die" list. Here are some pictures of the place that I took: 

Croom Mural Idea

Our art class was working on an idea for the mural in Croom. It was suppose to show all the positive features of Croom. My idea is inspired by the Gorillaz video and steampunk style. Hope you like it :3

Plaits.

Ever since I learned how to make fishtail plaits, I just make them everytime. Here are some pictures of them that I took:

Bags ^^

I'm sorry but I just love bags. Judge me. Picture taken by me :)

I'll follow you into the park, through the jungle, through the dark.

Pictures from the park. Little bit old but why not post them? (I took the pictures of the girl with the blonde/turquoise hair; she took pictures of me)

Capture the moment.

So apart from being interested in drawing etc., I'm really into photography. During the last year or so I really began to think about getting a proper dslr camera and to start taking some pictures. I know it's always hard at the beginning but I just told myself, "if you wanna achieve something in life, if you wanna chase your dreams, don't just sit there and wait for others to help you. Do something yourself. It's your dreams, take care of them yourself." And so I got up, made some small steps which slowly began to change into leaps and here I am. I already got a camera for which I was working all summer and I'm slowly beginning to take pictures of anything out there that I like/ find interesting etc. I'm not brilliant at it (yet, haha). It's just the start after all. But I believe that if I put in the effort I will achieve something. So I decided why not share my pictures on my blog? I won't be posting everything here but I set up my own Flickr and I'll be putting up links of my new pictures and stuff. Hope you guys will be interested and hope you will like my pictures.
Thanks for everything, Aleks.

What I'm working on...

So basically I'm working on many projects at the moment. I'll be posting the rest of the pictures asap.
This was meant to be a poster for a competition but I decided to keep it and work on something different. It's not finished but I'm halfway there. I'm so so proud of this. (Btw this is a drawing of Aly Antorcha). Please tell me what you think :3 and also sorry for the awful quality of the picture!

Daphne Groeneveld: The angel among models

One day, a 17 year old Dutch girl, Daphne Groeneveld, got spotted by a random woman while she was shopping with her mother. Little did she know that soon afterwards she will start a modellingcareer making her no. 9 in the top 50 models ranking on www.models.com

Daphne already took part in photoshoots forworldwide know companies such as Vogue, Miu Miu, H&M etc. She walked fordesigners such as Dior, Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Gucci, Fendi, Emilio Pucci,Roberto Cavalli, John Galliano, Lanvin, Louis Vuitton, Etro, Prada, KarlLagerfeld, Versace, Anna Sui, Jason Wu and Donna Karan. She also played inDior's Addict Parfum commercial. She is my favourite model. Daphne is just sounique and beautiful and I hope she’s going to be the no.1 model soon.

here are some of my favourite pictures of her:
