magdalena's spell

Magadalena's Spell by Anna Maria - That Rehcy Chic - June 2013

I recently gave in and joined the LookBook.nu club, my profile is at Lookbook.nu/rehcy , and while looking through a few profiles, I discovered fashion blogger Magdalena M from Poland. Completely inspired by one of her looks, a sort of modern Victorian vampire look,  I had to immediately sketch my version.

Here she's holding her spell-book, and yes, I am under "Magdalena's Spell"

You can see my inspiration here . Hope you love the sketch, Magdalena!

'Till next time, my dolls, I bid you adieu...

My favorite belt!

Pic with my adorable photographer...where did my other foot go?

 Polka-dots mixed with red always brings thoughts of Minnie Mouse, my very first fashion inspiration.

'Till next time, doll!

the gathering

A few weeks ago one of my best friends had her first ever solo art exhibit, the title of the collection was "The Gathering." The exhibit was held at the Full Circle Gallery in Fort Walton Beach, FL. I am so exited for her and all that she's accomplished with this collection.

Now time to share some pictures from opening night!!

Her she is, the star artist of the night, AiSeong aka Peculiar Pigeon. So proud of her!

"The Gathering" is a modern, hipster-ish take on the Catholic saints. The five centerpiece works are done in upcycled drawers in order to work as little shrines. An awesome idea, right?!!

 Talking to some of her fans. :-)

And here she is with Mercedes, the owner of the gallery, Full Circle Gallery in Fort Walton Beach, FL.

 And my favorite picture of the night, love her facial expression!!

More of AiSeong's art to come on her blog Peculiar Pigeon

Till next time, dolls!

weekend sketch

Sketch by Anna Maria - May 2013 - That Rehcy Chic

Sketch I did this weekend; kinda practicing facial angles. Had this image in my head; didn't turn out exactly how I envisioned so I'll be sketching a few more similar pics until I get it right.

(Sketch done with Letraset markers and Faber-Castell pens)

The second pic I was just playing around with a watercolor brush on the computer.

guardian

That Rehcy Chic - "Guardian" by AM

Here's a piece I drew this past week. Probably slightly inspired by the season finale of Supernatural. Lord, I love that show! Sam and Dean are my friends..right?

This was made with graphite pencils, Faber-Castell pens, Letraset markers, and Prismacolor pencils. Then cleaned up digitally.

What's your favorite medium?

'Till next time, dolls.
