Oh Dominika. These are splendid illustrations. I especially love the last one with the tea bag. And my fav quote is " Why fit in when you were born to stand out " by Dr.Suess. Have a nice day lovely and fingers crossed for this giveaway :)

Congratulations my dear Zakkiya!

A handmade community in Qatar

And I also have some nice news to tell you, so please don't leave yet :)


I don't know if you remember that together with my friend Gabi we founded a group for people who make handmade products in Qatar called QatART. 

After we joined forces with art and craft school Inspiration Station and formed a dedicated board team in October 2013 we became more active. 

Our last accomplishment is that we managed to agree on collaboration between our group and Katara Art Studios and we will start organizing our own handmade markets in Katara starting from this Friday, 28th March. 

One more exciting news is that the story about our group was published yesterday, Sunday 23rd March in a local newspaper Qatar Tribune and we are all so proud and happy.



Sending you my smile with love,
Dominika

Cute Christmas Paintings

Monday blog post #51

Hello and welcome!

It's been a year since I've decided to write my blog posts every Monday.
You can come over every Monday to read what was happening during the past week and if you don't want to forget, you can  register for RSS Feed and my Monday blog post will be delivered to your email box at the moment it's been published.

So, what was going on last week???

My group and a handmade community called QatART with 6 of us in our board team was organizing our first event in collaboration with Inspiration Station on Friday. We were doing everything from registering vendors, making decorations for the venue, putting the tables and decorations, cleaning after, to designing the promotional materials and promotion of the event. We are all doing that on volunteer base and I can say we did a great job.
Congrats to all my girls: Aly, Mel, Janiththri, Leila and Gabi and all our helpers for making it such a success.

Here are the photos from the event - Freaky Friday

My hubby and me at Freaky Friday

I was photographer at the event + I had a photo booth for taking photos of people with my handmade Halloween props. It was such a fun day!

Along with all the preparations for the event I was working on my Cute Christmas paintings and one custom ordered painting.

How did I manage to do all that?
I don't know but I know I spent my Saturday afternoon in bed resting.

I've already confirmed my participation in few events during November and December, you can see all of them under this link.

First one is on Saturday, 2nd November at Museum of Islamic Art Park bazaar from 12-7pm.

Now I'm off to start designing my Christmas products!
Stay tuned on my Facebook page.

Sending you my smile with love,
Dominika
