Dichromatism

Dreamcaught

In light of my hair's relentless dreadlust, I'm currently about forty percent unlocked, sixty percent dread head! To channel my inner Cruella and unleash my tresses' alter ego, I went dichromatic. Say hello to Gabruella Dread Vil... Needless to say, she's got quite the split personality.

Lovin' Is What I Got

Lovin' Is What I Got

Goodbye 2nd year of college at UCSB, hello Summer 2011! What better way to kick off the summer than with a therapeutic week back home in Los Angeles to see family & friends, relax by the pool, gorge myself with oriental delicacies (which are few and far between in Santa Barbara), and squeeze in some long overdue quality time with my paints, palette, and paint brushes! My lastest project was one created with heartening intensions for my dear friend Michael, who was recently diagnosed with leukemia. Michael being a fervent fan of the almighty Sublime and an avid bicycle enthusiast, I decided to paint a sort of synthesis of his loves on a piece of wood I had laying around. This is just a little message from all of us that are thinking about you Michael... remember that, lovin' is what we got... for you kid!

Gab Bag!

Summer is fast approaching, which means more free time for new crafty endeavors! One of which I've been working on for a while--Gab Bag! I've been sewing my own bags for a few years now, but finally got around to producing a mini line of Reversible Slouch Gab Bags to sell on Etsy! There are much more to come, but check out my first batch of goodies (click the link above or any of the photos)!


These bags echo the simplicity of nature. No fancy straps, compartments, or embellishments. Just a simple flora-inspired slouch bag that you can toss your daily knick-knacks into, and off you go! With a nice round shape, it cradles your belongings like a cozy hammock. The mellow shades of floral fabric mimic the pleasant sensory experience of being in the midst of sweet wilderness. Best thing about it, it's reversible! Turn it inside out to match your mood, outfit, or even the weather! The light-weight cotton makes for a great casual side-sack that you can easily throw in the washing machine when nature has it's way with it. Every reversible slouch Gab Bag is one of a kind with a pattern and combination unlike the rest. Find one perfect for your style!
