is the angry hedonist: former designer who gave it all up to become a poor and starving but happy artist instead. She illustrates awkward women in uneasy dilemmas with that loving touch of macabre. She enjoys telling the world her life’s little stories in her illustrations...

As Cunning by any other Name ©2010, nataliette. digital painting.
shakespeare said, “…that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;”
a most sweetfaced girl could have the most conniving disposition. appearances are made to deceive; girls pile on makeup while guys drown themselves in deodorant. we all go out parading lies to the world. what a dishonest society.

RIDDING OF BURDENS ©2010, nataliette. digital painting.
it is my firm belief that we should accept all of life’s inevitable (and countless) tragedies because only after acceptance can we go on living. mourning is a great coping mechanism, but not an excuse to delay life’s other wonderful treasures. moving on!
being sadface for 7 days or 7 months is ultimately up to yourself… and i wonder which sounds more exciting, hmhm.

HEIRS OF THE CLOWN by nataliette. digital painting, 2010.

pp/s. you can shop this print now, too!

CLAUDINE & CLEMENTINE ©2009, nataliette.
digital painting + photomontage & airbrushing.this is Claudine and Clementine, the haughtiest twins in the neighbourhood.
they love christmas for the presents, though the gifts did them a nary bit of good.bloodshot eyes and sulky faces. puffy sleeved leotards and swishy frocked skirts. the cotton candy hair reminded me of Claudia from Interview With The Vampire and hence: Claudine. whose twin is Clementine. to see the picture in larger size click here.
and omg, sorry for the infrequent art/posts. i havent been too inspired lately.
usually mundanity turns my brain to useless mush and on the contrary: the worse my mood, the more i draw.
recently theres been plenty of family drama but this time, oddly, it was hardly motivating me to do my art.
NO MATTER. as usual i wont be home for the festivities: this year, im flying off to the philippines. hooray! my flight leaves already next Wednesday. being one of the few people who love flying, i cant wait to get my passport stamped.
BORACAY, HERE I COME!!!
until then, Happy Holidays y’all.
