Let me introduce you to Summer, Mindy, Margot, Juno, Clementine and Amèlie. The Indie Heroines.

An Italian painter that painted hair...
I found this artist browsing through old catalogues in a book fair that's now up in Madrid.
Reminds me of Botero a bit, but with a mad attention to detail.
Good info in Spanish here.

"Well, well, well.
The ladies are having a fun time.
I felt so sorry that quite a few of the limited edition prints were finished or about to finish, and I was missing the ladies in them. So I've gathered them all in a fabulous sort of postcard party!
These are 10 x 15 cms and have a hand-drawn back printed on them. The card I've used is 250 grs and can be drawn on for further customization!
They come lovingly packed and ready to be shipped all over the world. Who are you sending these ladies to? Where are they going to travel to?
So many stories will arise!"

I've been thinking of presenting the do's as postcards for a while and have finally got round to it.
In this way, you can now acquire a Nosideup hairdo portrait at so many different levels:

Own portrait $ 75
Limited edition prints $20
Printed Bags $15
Postcards $10

How do you like them?
Also, find Nosideup in facebook!

Here are all the totes!
They are almost all up in the shop :)

Oh yes.
They are what you think.
The Ladies (all of them) are making a comeback in unlimited edition totes.
Expect them in the shop tomorrow!

Dear all of you,
As I preparing to enter my MA, I'm trying to build a stronger Nosideup.
I've drawn a few new do's; stamped some cards; included it in my portfolio, etc.
Now, I've decided to go ahead and create a page in Facebook (you can join it here or in the box on the top right).
Even though I already had a facebook blog page, I did not have that much possibility for interaction in that one. So, if you want to join me in facebook, please do! It'll be great to have a closer feel of who you are :)



PS: Stay posted because I've got exciting news later on!

Dear everyone,
these are Liza, Nicola and Paloma (bottom to top) .
They have just moved to my Etsy shop.
Be nice to them (as you see some of them have not had that much of a good day), maybe invite them to your home?

I'm very excited to show you what I've been up to...

Thanks Mr. M!

Einat, from Israel has a lovely blog called DesignBreak and has included my Hair portraits in it. Thanks and keep up the hard work!

It's been 10 days since my last post and my bad conscience is killing me. I don't even know how this has happened. I guess that I've had so many things going on that I haven't even known how to get back on blog track. So, here's the last few days:

Culdesac and Studio Marisol are holding a workshop on hair and product design @ Domain de Boisbuchet.

Francesca DiMattio's work looks like the pic above. That's fine, I like it (I saw it at Abstract America, in The Saatchi Gallery, London). BUT, Francesca DiMattio herself looks like the pics below. And that means I need to master that hair-do with a terrible urgency. Via.
