Doll With a Frown

Everlong

I’ve had more time to draw lately. I think I forgot for a while just how much it means to me. I let life and love get in the way, and I let things change me. But if theres one thing I know its that when I draw or take pictures or hear certain songs I start to work things out in my head. I make sense of things that dont make any sense. This song was ours for a good little while. And now its all mine.

Lyrics: Everlong - The Foo Fighters

I’m living on such sweet nothing

Introducing my new room. It’s finally all done and dusted! I’m so in love with it and the way I feel more like myself there now. It’s a step in the right direction of changes I want to make to my life. There has come this time where I feel that everything good and artistic and romantic that I hold dear has to start to have a place. I spend so much of my time on these beautiful ideals and notions of love that it becomes difficult to find perspective. So my new room is the place for these things, and on here of course. Now that I have my workspace back expect lots of new drawings coming soon!

A few things from lately:

Watching Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Blue Valentine, lots of kissing, listening to She and Him’s cover of ‘Fools Rush in’, more kissing. Oh and sunshine (thats outside my window right this very minute!)

Also, I’ve found my way to the beautiful world of Instagram. Search for graceandtheheart for general pretty goings on, probably nerdiness, art and photography!

I’d be yours, if you’d be mine.

Lately I’ve been waiting around to make some changes. I’ve had a crazy few months already and so now we come to April and I’m taking apart my room ready for decorating. All my pictures are off the walls and everything is in boxes. This is where I’ve sat and drawn everything, where my entire body of work has come from. My room was like a work of art in itself. But now I’m ready for the next chapter.

Today I’ve uncovered so many things I’d forgotten about. Unfinished drawings and photos and words that mean so much to me. Change is never easy but its time for a new outlook - and I dont feel the same way about things as I used to. I even found drawings from back when I was 17. And now at 22 its time for a new, more refined space to work in. Plus I have the most beautfiul antique dressing table to sit at and draw. I can’t wait to share it all with you!

Introducing today Lozwold! Otherwise known as Lauren.

Not only is she one of my best friends, but also my business partner and a constant inspiration to me. Shes the most fun and stylish person I know and there are simply no words to say how much I love her.

Lately shes not only been modelling for me on some top secret photoshoots (and been illustrated too!) but shes started up her own fashion blog! I thought I’d share some of her beauty on here and ask you all to fall in love with her too and follow her adventures at: http://lozwold.wordpress.com/
