Inspiration source No 2 - Twin Peaks

So it is Twin peaks. Cult tv series by David Lynch and Mark Frost. Even though it was created in 90's, I could watch it over and over again and I still find something unique and different every time. The TV series itself combines the whole range of styles like drama, comedy, horror, mystery. I love the way David Lynch chooses the actors/actresses - some of them where not actors before Twin peaks. Did you know that the main 'evil' Bob from Twin peaks was a set dresser and not an actor? When Lynch saw his accidental reflection on the mirror, he kept Frank Silva (Killer Bob) in the show.

5 reasons why text-free t-shirts are better!

I love text-free t-shirts! Here are the 5 reasons why: The graphics, art, image should speak for themselves instead of putting the label on everything and everyone.

Here are some of my favourites:

How to juggle kids and work from home?

Sometimes (no - quite often I would say!) people ask me: how do you do it? 'It' is opening a small store within a Indoor market (see first article in this blog) having online shop making all the products myself (did I mention that ARTsy clothing is a solo business?) marketing and promotions creating designs/drawing taking care of 6 months old and 2.5 yo daughters  Well, the answer is not straightforward and simple. I struggle sometimes and loose patience and feel like everyone is against me. And that no one is helping me. Right this moment, my youngest is trying to put her chubby legs on the keyboard and probably make her input to this blog. The other one is...
