more to discover next summer

Tiffany Julia September 1, 2013

It’s September 1st. The Hogwarts Express has left Platform 9 3/4 and is headed off into the hills of Scotland, carrying hundreds of young wizards and witches back to school. What I’m trying to say here is summer is over. While it may not feel like it’s over for some people (like me, who don’t have to go back to school ever) and I mean, the weather seems remotely like…

Here are just a few spreads from my Summer of Love art journal. I don’t think I have many favorites from this art journal, only because I’m a complete novice at it. These pages, while they are pretty, show that I didn’t really do much with the magazine images than I could have. Then again, I’m still trying to understand what’s the best way for me to journal. I suppose…

my summer of love art journal

Tiffany Julia July 26, 2013

Hey! It took me awhile to post pictures of my Summer of Love art journal for various reasons. One, I didn’t get a book until about four or five days into the class. Two, when I did get my book, I had a day to mess around with it before my friend Jenna came to stay with me for a week. Three, when Jenna left, my family and I took…

puerto rico: la isla del encanto

Tiffany Julia July 22, 2013

puerto rico Hello there! Wow, even though it was only a week, I feel like I haven’t posted in months. This past week my family and I went to Puerto Rico for a long awaited family vacation. We stood at a resort, El Conquistador, which we had only ever visited just once, because I suggested it (along with other destinations). The first time we visited, my dad’s friend’s wife was the manager…

until the sun goes down / a mixtape

Tiffany Julia July 13, 2013

I finally got my book in the mail, so naturally I’ve started catching up on all the wonderful art journaling prompts for my Summer of Love class. One of Day 3’s prompts was to journal your summer playlist, so of course this gave me the opportunity to create a brand new playlist just for my art journaling! I have a ton of songs I’ve been listening to lately, my phone…

navigating nyc like a tourist (sort of)

Tiffany Julia July 10, 2013

new york, new york So this week, my friend Jenna from Chicago is visiting the city. She’s staying with me in my house and I’ve been taking her around the city. She’s only been here two days so far, but I’ve taken the opportunity to act like a tourist with her. Today, we just came home from walking around 34th Street through 48th street, hitting all the major spots that…

let’s go to the beach

Tiffany Julia July 7, 2013

Hi! I was totally going to post this yesterday, but I got home late and while I was trying to write this post, I was falling asleep. So I waited to do it for today. So, yesterday I went to Coney Island beach with my friends. I took some really amazing shots of random things and my friends all day because I don’t really like New York beaches. All the…

happy summer

Tiffany Julia July 4, 2013

Hi! You’re all probably at the beach or a barbecue or getting ready to watch the firework display. I spent my day reading and taking photos for my Summer of Love class. It’s the first day in about a week where it isn’t raining! It’s just been really hot and humid, which I suppose is okay since it’s not hot, humid AND wet. Apparently we’ll be getting a heat wave in the…

my summer of love

Tiffany Julia July 2, 2013

So, because of Hannah Clare of Monster Serenade posting about her love of summer, I not only have some really cool tunes to listen to, but I’m also taking this art journaling/photography class, “Summer of Love” run by Kara Haupt of I Just Might Explode. For the art journaling part, we’ll be creating an art journal from an old vintage hardcover book. Living in NYC, looking for a vintage book…
