The Story behind Art As a Present.

The Art- as a-Present Collection is all about exceptional design. The images in there are chosen for their exceptional beauty. I will tell you the story behind the collection.

I always knew the importance of a haircut when growing up. And yet I was surrounded by glamorous people from the hippy movement that never touched their hair. They used to have these long glamorous shining tresses that looked great. So when I arranged an appointment with a very important stylist, I figured out I had to do something special if I wanted a decent cut. 

I started researching style in international mags. First I started with Vogue Paris. But  British Vogue was more accepting to the less than sterling of us. It was a question of trial and error. But what I noticed was as the quality of the mag went up so did the beauty of the images. Finally, I started collection the pictures.


And this how Art-As-a-Present images started to become a collection.

If you have any design images that are worthy of note please feel free to send them to www.facebook.com/artaspresent.  And remember every like of the page and every purchase helps the Collection (and your images) increase in value.

Birthday Itinerary on the LIke-a-thon

And what am I going to do today? I am glad you asked. First thing I am going to have breakfast at the wonderfully designed new restaurant down the street. I dare not tell you the name because I want to have a place. If I told you well then you might be one of the multitude of fans that take the tables instead of me. So, in to the shower and then I am off to the races. (did you join my event) What? Not yet? Well now's the time.

Bieber; Under the Mistletoe

Well the laundry's done. I have two pairs of kicky pajama bottoms waiting to be worn now. We are talking pink leopard and monkeys on a purple background. The dishwasher is out for a couple of days now and we have been eating on paper plates so I am going to look for a nice place to have my lunch today. I have a selection of three restos in mine: French, Brazilian and a coffee with a winning menu.  After that, I am going to go pick up a couple of pastries for tonight and f or Christmas morning. Talking about the French resto, they have some beautiful, decorative pastries. I only hope they are open. Meanwhile, this being the 24th I am going to go back to bed for a bit before I get dressed to search our sustenance.  Meanwhile, why not pick up some Christmas images from Bieber. By the way, what does shawty mean? He says that a lot in the song.

VG30 New Collage? Just one thing before I start....

It all started when I wanted to change my small square image for the Winter Exhibition.  the task was supposed to take five minutes.  I would make a fresh collage.  Everything was prepared.  And just scoot the thing in.  All done. Unfortunately it did not turn out that way. First of all there was a Holiday Season decoration still installed on the picture.  So that had to come off.  And if I was going to take it off I had to film it.  This work was in the Rose Studio and the ornament was not just any ornament, it was chandelier inspired with real chandelier crystal integrated into it.  So I had to take a picture of it. And if I had to take a picture of it then I had to install the proper set up to that the light and shadows worked.  And if I took the trouble to do that then maybe I should film All the other ornaments from the Holidays.  And before I did that, I had to finish some with some new crystals that I had gotten.
