French Romance . Jewelry Shop Update

Hello friends! It's been a while since I updated my jewelry shop,

but I was working on a new exciting collection!

It's called "French Romance"
The main inspiration for designing this collection was a beautiful ad by Christian Dior.

Here are some of the new earrings.

Check out my shop to see all the new pieces.

Have a wonderful weekend! xo

MouMou loves cheese and his favorite

His favorite scary movie is "owls at night",

but he never watches that alone...

always with a friend.

L - Lobster

"L" is for Lobster

Lobstie was watching a program on TV about blue lobsters.
she couldn't believe her eyes. "Is that even possible? They are

so beautiful!!" She wished her color was also blue, but after looking

at herself in the mirror she realized that red is the perfect

color for her and she was happy again!

Watercolor on Fabriano hot pressed paper.

To come up with the closest color to the original painting I usually change the settings of the file

and print the illustration again and again until I find the perfect match.

Hope you're having a great weekend :)

Here is sunny and warm in Toronto!

Red tailed hawk

The big bird that could be seen from my window in the previous post is a

majestic bird called "Red Tailed Hawk", thanks for all of your comments and

my special thanks to Msventrue, MarieJ and
Kcbirder for the wonderful information about this bird!

This is a pen and watercolor illustration I did in the little Moleskine.

Birds from my window

Zenaida Dove, these birds have a very beautiful voice.

They sing a nice and calming song in the morning.

We had the same birds back in Iran, but they sing a totally different song!

Isn't it interesting? We call them "Ghomri" in Persian.

The cutest thing ever! Baby sparrow! Little fluffy thing!

He's learning to fly these days, he's full of excitement to discover the world!

I took this photo 20 minutes ago (7 am)

I have no idea what this huge bird is?

Do you know its name?

It was flying very close so I could take a photo of it.

First I though I'm seeing a plane from far :))
