DRAWING
Well, one of things I've always like is art and drawings. I can show you a drawing I found in Google and that uses perspective very well, and at the same time is kind of cool! 










See some videos as well,

One of my drawing when i was in High School.



















Remember the other day when I said that Fyrinnae's Velvet Vampire was a must have? I meant it. It is one of the greatest eyeshadows I've ever seen. It's a burgundy based duochrome; if it were a nail polish I'd call it a glass fleck. It has little pearls of iridescent crystal-like shimmer that shift colors and sparkle even in really low light. I did this look with it the other day and I couldn't get over how amazing Velvet Vampire looked. I wore Kat Von D Lightning Sheer Lipgloss in Stormy (smoky red shimmer) with it, but my pictures of that didn't turn out. My lip pictures never turn out... But anyway, I took a bunch of pictures of the eyeshadow. Gah, I love it so much.

Fyrinnae Velvet Vampire applied wet on lid
The black half of the Hourglass Prism duo in crease and lower lashline
MAC Reflects Blackened Red glitter on top of the black in the crease
Fyrinnae Cheeky to highlight
Black liquid liner (I don't remember which one I used)
Cover Girl Lash Blast

I know I didn't capture the full beauty of this color, but you can at least get an idea of how it looks. It shifts colors when you blink! It's so sparkly and sexy and vampy, it really does look like velvet. I couldn't have picked a more perfect name for this color myself.

On a sidenote, Cheeky is my new favorite highlight color. I'm going to have to order a full size soon. It's close to the color I would normally use on my browbone, but it's special 'cause it has a hint of red shimmer to it. Subtle, but really special. Makes a nice neutral lid color, too.

Another layering combination with OPI Black Shatter that I really liked.


OPI Black Shatter over Color Club Jackie OH!. I love the combination of the neon with the black on top, it makes the neon look so much brighter. This reminds me of lava. If you have a neon pink or orange, you have to try this, it looks so cool in real life. I've noticed that my Black Shatter always crackles into vertical stripes... that's odd. I want some more random square chunks to happen when it crackles... The kind that make it look like a giraffe pattern... How do I get it to do that?
It's not much, pretty simple. I liked it best out of this weeks cards though... i think its kind of fun.

A SMALL MARBLE RELIEF OF JESUS CHRIST FLANKED BY TWO ANGELS AND BEING HELD UP BY MARY WAS ONE OF THE LAST PIECES THAT ITALIAN RENAISSANCE MASTER MICHELANGELO EVER CREATED. THE STUNNING MARBLE WORK IS BEING DISPLAYED NEXT TO A CAST OF ONE OF HIS OTHER GREAT WORKS, THE PIETA, DEPICTING CHRIST IN HIS MOTHER'S ARMS AFTER HIS CRUCIFIXION. THEY ARE PART OF ABOUT 170 WORKS ON DISPLAY AS PART OF THE EXHIBIT 'VATICAN SPLENDORS: A JOURNEY THROUGH FAITH AND ART', WHICH OPENED SATURDAY AT THE MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA. IT IS THE EXHIBIT'S LAST STOP ON A THREE CITY TOUR IN THE UNITED STATES. AFTER IT ENDS 24.APRIL, THE PIECES GO BACK TO THE VATICAN AND WILL NOT BE ON DISPLAY. MANY OF THE PIECES WILL NEVER BE SHOWN IN THE US AGAIN. 'NO WORK IS MORE IMPORTANT OR LESS IMPORTANT. THEY ARE SORT OF LIKE THE TILES OF A MOSAICS, EACH ONE CONTRIBUTES TO THE LARGER IMAGE', MONSIGNOR ROBERTO ZAGNOLI, THE CURATOR OF THE SHOW, SAID THROUGH A TRANSLATOR. THE EXHIBIT BEGINS WITH THE TOMB OF ST PETER, A FITTING STARTING POINT, ZAGNOLI SAID. IT FINISHES WITH THE MOST RECENT POPES, PETER'S SUCCESSORS, HE SAID. PETER IS CONSIDERED THE FIRST POPE OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH. TWO PAPAL SWISS GUARD UNIFORMS FLANK THE ENTRANCE AS VISITORS TRAVEL THROUGH THE CHRONOLOGICAL ERAS OF THE VATICAN'S HISTORY. FIRST, A VIDEO PRESENTATION DESCRIBES ST PETER'S ROLE IN THE CHURCH. THE FINAL SECTION INCLUDES A CAST OF POPE JOHN PAUL II's HANDS AND ENDS WITH A PORTRAIT OF CURRENT POPE BENEDICT XVI, MADE IN 2008. MUSEUM DIRECTOR IRVIN LIPPMAN SAID THE OBJECTS ASSOCIATED WITH JOHN PAUL II WILL TAKE ON A DEEPER MEANING 1.MAY WHEN HE IS BEATIFIED, A KEY STEP TO BEING DECLARED A SAINT. THE TOUR HAS ALSO BEEN TO ST LOUIS AND PITTSBURGH SINCE IT BEGAN IN MAY, THOUGH THE OBJECTS WILL SOON BE RETURNED TO THE VATICAN. BY LAW, THEY CANNOT BE OUTSIDE THE VATICAN'S WALLS MORE THAN A YEAR. AS THE SHOW BEGINS, A BRICK FROM ST PAUL'S TOMB IS ENCASED IN A WOODEN BOX WRAPPED WITH A GOLD-COLOURED ROPE. THERE ARE ALSO CLAY IL LAMPS FOUND DURING THE EXCAVATIONS THAT REVEALED PETER'S TOMB IN A CEMETERY BELOW ST PETER'S BASILICA. A GOLD AND SILVER RELIQUARY, A DECORATIVE CONTAINER USED TO HOLD RELIGIOUS RELICS, THAT HAS NEVER BEEN OUTSIDE THE VATICAN IS SAID TO ENCASE THE BONES OF ST PETER, ST PAUL AND OTHER SAINTS, THOUGH IT IS NOT CERTAIN WHO THE BONES BELONG TO. ANOTHER RELIEF, A REPLICA OF THE 15th CENTURY ORIGINAL, SHOWS ST PETER SURROUNDED BY PEOPLE WHILE HE IS BEING CRUCIFIED UPSIDE DOWN. OTHER DISPLAYS FOCUS ON TOOLS USED TO CREATE ART AND ARCHITECTURE. FOR INSTANCE, A CALIPER BELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN MICHELANGELO'S IS ON DISPLAY. THERE ARE ALSO TWO GILDED WOOD ANGELS FROM THE WORKSHOP OF GIAN LORENZO BERNINI. THE ORNATE ARTIFACTS DON'T END THERE. IN THE MIDDLE OF ONE ROOM IS A GILDED CROSS USED IN MASS PROCESSIONS, DATING TO THE 15th CENTURY. VISITORS CAN EXAMINE POPE PIUS XI's PAPAL THRONE, A CREATION OF WOOD, VELVET AND GOLD-PLATED METAL. ZAGNOLI, THE VATICAN OFFICIAL, SAID THE CONNECTION BETWEEN RELIGION AND ART IS STRONG, A POINT HE MAKES BY CITING A PASSAGE BY RUSSIAN AUTHOR FYODOR DOSTOYEVSKY THAT HE SAID WAS OFTEN QUOTED BY POPE JOHN PAUL II. 'BEAUTY WILL SAVE THE WORLD', ZAGNOLI SAID. 'THE POPE WAS SAYING THAT SEEING SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL CAN CALM THE HEARTS OF MAN AND WITH THAT TRANQUILITY HE IS ABLE TO PUT HIMSELF IN DIALOGUE WITH OTHER PEOPLE.'
