Starlight Spotlight!

Artists Haas & Hahn started this project in collaboration with the community of Santa Marta, in the heart of Rio de Janeiro. The result  of months of hard work is an explosion of colour covering 7000 square meters. Their dream is to raise enough funds to continue the project and paint the entire hillside favela.

Loved this post by Krisatomic titled Get Your Sketch On, particularly I loved Deanna Staffo's sketchbook, she also has a lovely blog called Mischief + Madness , well worth a look.

I'm usually drawn to patterns and colours when looking at clothes, there's no such thing as over the top as far as I'm concerned, it's surprising to me then to find myself attracted by Margaret Howell's understated collection, but I am ... so there!
