The Parartiste Collection

Sunday 06 December 2009 at 7:22 pm Paraphernalia and Dapperfish sitting on a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes love, then comes plotting, then come brooches with surreal portraits!

Miss Vanda aka Czarina aka Paraphernalia made a collection featuring illustrations from the artists at Portugal, mon amour. She has been wanting to work with illustrators for years and we had actually tested some of my portraits as necklaces a couple of years ago. However, that never followed through until she had the idea for Portugal, mon amour and the Marvellous Heart collective and other artists started working together to make it come true. That's when the Parartiste collection was born, she took our work and turned it into beautiful necklaces and brooches for you to wear.

Melle Poitrine Brooch

You can buy them at Paraphernalia, Portugal mon amour, or our personal shops. I just added mine to my etsy, so of course I have to share here. I decided on brooches with a pearl, because I find it looks very pretty, and that's what I can see me wear more often. Even though I am the one of all of the other artists involved who doesn't feel comfortable at all wearing one of my drawings! It just feels weird!
