SOCO Update
Custom Cedar Chest - Part 2
Finally! I'm able to post some progress on the custom chest I've been working on! It's definitely a labor of love, but now that I've gotten through the grunt work (sanding, wood filling, and spray painting)-I'm really getting in the groove! It depicts my friends, Roman & Jana with their doggies, as a "Dia de los Muertos" family! The whole chest is a chocolate brown color, with lots of vibrant color added. This is the lid, I still have the sides to complete, and I'll post those pics when I get there...phew!

Christmas came early!!!
Fabulous things are happening here in Leila land! Soon, Illustrated Ink will feature my art on screen printed tee's and bags! Yay! I owe this new development to my fab boyfriend who invested in my biz by purchasing a YUDU machine for me. Also, my sweet Grandmother surprised me with my very own sewing machine! I had been wanting one for awhile, to try my hand at some basic stitching. All these goodies in one week, it's just too exciting!!! Stay tuned for new products (and some new machine experimentation and mishaps, I'm sure).....;-)
LOS GRANOS
.
.. Se llamaba Irma. Curandera indígena de los mapuches, de esa zona que antes de la llegada de los españoles no era ni chilena, ni argentina. En la zona de Los Andes donde el canelo y las araucarias son árboles sagrados. Irma vivía en Mendoza. Solían visitarla para curarse enfermedades muchos vecinos del lugar y de manera discreta, señorial, ella les atendía y no les cobraba.
.Una vez fué a pedirle ayuda una mujer joven que padecía un acné rebelde de curar. Irma para ayudarla, después de unos rezados que establecen el "encuadre" de trabajo, el ritual, le pintó sobre cada grano un círculo negro con tinta. Quedó "a lunares". Y le prescribió: ahora te irás a tu casa por el camino más largo, irás por la calle donde pasea toda la gente, eso sí, no debes mirar a nadie en lo posible y sobre todo no debes darte vuelta, si giras la cabeza para ver detrás de tí los granos volverán. Haciendo caso la mujer fue a la calle con su piel pintada. A los pocos días los granos que tenía se fueron y no aparecieron otros.
.Irma hace mucho que falleció, en los sesenta. Su discipula Natalia, vive en algún lugar de Los Andes.

I'm Featured!
This week marks my first week back on eBay. I've actually missed it, I'd forgotten the thrill of the auction set up. I'm going to try to sell an original piece weekly on there, as I've had some requests to see my OOAK (one-of-a-kind) art back on-line.
This week, I've listed the "Corazon Sagrado" mirror that I featured in an earlier post. Bidding starts at only .99, so please check it out if you're interested!
I've been diligently working on the custom cedar chest and creating some new pieces for my SOCO booth. If you're an Austinite, I'll be down there this Sunday. Due to the 80% chance of rain, I don't think I'll be setting up on Saturday. Have a great weekend everyone!

PSICOMAGIA
.
...Hola Alejandro: me llamo Araceli y mi problema es que tengo una tendencia muy acusada a hinchar mis piernas. Yo se que es una emoción y a nivel intelectual creo que la tengo algo colocada pero cuando creo que lo comprendo y veo que mis piernas se hinchan me agobio mucho e incluso últimamente tengo mucha ansiedad. Llevo tiempo esperando esta oportunidad y hoy que parece que la realidad danzó. Espero y agradezco de antemano un acto de psicomagia. Un beso.
........CONSIGA SIETE KILOS DE TIERRA EXTRAÍDA EN EL PUEBLO DONDE USTED SE CRIÓ. CADA NOCHE, DURANTE CUARENTA DÍAS HUNDA LOS PIES EN ESA TIERRA Y LEA CUENTOS DE HADAS.

My Collection

I have never really collected anything (unless you count New Kids On the Block pictures to put on my wall when I was 12). But the past few years I have begun to acquire figurines/knicknacks of specific places/landmarks around the world, thanks a GREAT deal to my world traveling Mom in law! (Thank you Laura!)
As you can see from the picture there is an Eiffel Tower, Leaning Tower of Pisa , Coliseum, The Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, The Seattle Space Needle, the votive candle holder from Finland, the wooden cat from Ecuador, the Sydney Opera House , and my newest addition the Duomo snowglobe from Florence (thank you Leann).
I love that all the famous locations are from that actual place and I love that they are from someone who went there and thought of me! It makes the collection a lot more fun! Sooooo.... I am putting this out there to you...... if you ever go to a landmark location and find a miniature replica or find a small trinket from a far away land (and you think of me), I would LOVE to add to my collection! I am hoping that someday I will get to add to it to myself, but so far my far away journeys take me to the midwest USA, and they don't make replicas of the Osmond Theatre in Branson.
Do you love how I am using my blog to solicit gifts from people! =) In all honesty, I would love to someday fill up a wall (or a small curio cabinet) with places from around the world, and remember each person that gave me each one.
I will put on pictures of my adventures from the next few weeks soon, I just wanted to share my collection.
YEAH FOR FRIDAY!! Love you all!

Custom Cedar Chest!
Here is the first of many posts to come, featuring the cedar chest project I'm starting. I've been commissioned to turn this solid chest into a lively "Dia de los Muertos" piece, complete with skull portraits, skeletal dogs, a winged sacred heart, roses, and coffin butterflies (you'll just have to wait and see what those look like). I'm excited and a little intimidated at the same time, because aside from murals, it will be the largest piece I've done. I'm working on phase one today, which involves repairing the wood damage (from a chew happy puppy), sanding, and prepping the entire piece to be painted with a base coat. I've globbed a large amount of wood filler on the damaged areas, where I hope to re-shape the missing corners...we shall see. I will post pics, once I've begun phase two!
