Magical Santa Hat

Kokabella — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 14:55:29 +0000

Title: “Magical Santa Hat“ Available in my store.

Today’s a crazy day to say the least. I’m writing this from my little mini me’s day school where she’s getting ready for her Christmas music show. Then it’s rush, rush back to my studio to finish up some design work before heading back to pick mini-me up!

I just got an email that for today only, we can buy discounted gift cards for iTunes at Plastic Jungle.

If you’re like me and love indulging in apps and music, this is a steal! Okay, show’s about to begin, have a great morning my lovelies. See you tomorrow with another Christmas greeting!

I Love You This Big Watercolor & Video

Kokabella — Sat, 10 Dec 2011 12:03:08 +0000

I took 30 seconds to dab some watercolors onto an index card {closest thing in reach at that very moment} added some water drops and a piece of word art after hearing Scotty McCreery’s video that’s playing below. Isn’t he a cutie patootie?!

This song reminds me so much of my little girl. I picked her up and danced around the living room singing it to her last night as it played on the tv! We both giggled and laughed so much! Another memory that I will soon not forget.

Love Me ‘Til My Heart Stops

Kokabella — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 13:13:35 +0000

An art piece designed from a shot at the beach, inspired by the song below that was playing on the radio.

I’m debuting it at my two-day Christmas sale at Office Divvy that starts today. It will be available in my store this weekend.

This Must Be The Place {Naive Melody} Lyrics by Talking Heads

Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me round
I feel numb – born with a weak heart
{So I} guess I must be having fun
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground
Head in the sky
It’s ok I know nothing’s wrong… nothing

Hi yo I got plenty of time
Hi yo you got light in your eyes
And you’re standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money
Always for love
Cover up say goodnight . . . say goodnight

Home is where I want to be
But I guess I’m already there
I come home she lifted up her wings
Guess that this must be the place
I can’t tell one from the other
Did I find you, or you find me?
There was a time Before we were born
If someone asks, this where I’ll be . . . where I’ll be

Hi yo We drift in and out
Hi yo sing into my mouth
Out of all those kinds of people
You got a face with a view
I’m just an animal looking for a home
Share the same space for a minute or two
And you love me till my heart stops
Love me till I’m dead
Eyes that light up, eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head
Ah ooh

Day Twenty-Two: 31 Days of Props

Kokabella — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 16:21:07 +0000

Why I was behind Wal-Mart the other day is beyond me! A great shot came out of it though that I used to create with for the 31 Days of Creativity challenge. Since I chose “props” as my challenge, I used the recycled boxes as the prop! Where do I come up with this stuff?! LOL!

Once Upon a Long Time Ago

Kokabella — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 05:07:35 +0000

This is SO far out of my comfort zone and very different than the photographic art I create. If you’ve ever lost touch with your true self, you’ll get this. I’m working on getting back in touch with my inner creative soul that offers up thought provoking questions and ideas. It’s liberating to work on a piece of art knowing that someone out there can relate to what I’ve designed. It’s like an “ah-ha” moment!

Please keep checking back for something that might reach your soul… {and grab a pencil, crayon, some paint or even a tube of lipstick and jot down your thoughts in pictures. Even if it’s abstract, it will have meaning to you and that’s all that matters!}. GO FOR IT!
