Do you know Maia Chavez Larkin? I am utterly enchanted with her beautiful blog & her gorgeous daughter. She seems to live a truly beautiful life.
Then I find out that she is also an amazingly talented illustrator. Her illustrations sparkle with vitality & show that she really understands the world as seen through the innocence & playfulness of youth!
She created these beautiful Paper Dolls complete with outfits readied for adventure.
& *LOOK* she customized her gorgeous Evelyne to have her very own Loup Charmant wardrobe! I am beyond thrilled & honored & cannot wait to have her for my very own!!
thank you Maia!
Isn't Evelyne just gorgeous with her Foxy Familiar & Loup Charmant outfits?

 

happy winter solstice.

it's true.

i am now officially loving the string of dots encircling my knee...

remnants from one lone stinging tentacle encountered under a starry night in a luminescent bay.

staring at the sky + watching shooting stars....

is how i spent much of this past weekend at a beautiful wedding in the caribbean.

the stars were incredible & i think it's time to memorize more of these constellations.
