Interview with Lulu DK

July 17, 2012




Oh Lulu, you fill up my senses
like nobody's business!

What is not to love?

*Vibrantly bold deliciousness*

 Buy her book right here:
Lulu
 
Lulu deKwiatkowski



*Magical combinations of color and fantasy*



*Collages that entice and invite to breathe in
beauty of journeys and travel which left a mark*


*Textiles singing with joy,
with whimsy and childlike wonder*






I so honor your painter's eye.
Your exuberant imagination.
Your gift for creating lovely.




Lulu responded to a few favorite
hellolovelyesque questions:



Why is it so important to honor creativity?

"FOR ME, CREATIVITY IS LIKE MEDITATION.
I HAVE TO DO A LITTLE BIT OF IT EACH DAY TO FEEL
COMPLETE AND FULFILLED."




What three things are inspiring you lately?

"I AM ALWAYS INSPIRED BY MY JOURNEYS
AND THE NATURE OF EACH LOCATION I VISIT.
I AM IN ITALY RIGHT NOW, ON THE WATER,
SURROUNDED BY FLOWERS AND NATURE...
NEED I SAY MORE?"

* * *

Hop over to One King's Lane
for a sale of everything LULU
today!

One more thing, sunshine.
ARE YOU CREATING SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
IN YOUR LIFE WITH YOUR PASSION & TALENTS?

What is stopping you?
We cannot afford to wait for a moment of truth
or the perfect idea...begin today, okay?

Peace to you right where you are.


p.s.
I snagged a Lulu original at the sale
this morning and will share it with you later!

    That tuffet Mich! Seriously, get in ma belly too. Or my senses if possible and alter my perception :P Know what I mean? Her collages are surreal. Or as I would normally say, great trippy stuff.

    Happy happy designs!
    Ha, I love the mushroom too!

    Sorry I seem to be taking my sweet time catching up with your posts. I'm trying to wrap up work activities which is proving to be busy and tiring. And any spare time finds me cooing over baby things.

    Hope you're doing well too, lovely!

    Hugs hugs,
    Meera xx

    Oh my god, yes, the paintings are stunning, mixed media work so intriguing (I could spend hours just getting lost in all the crazy wonder) and the fabrics so dreamy... pinned the nursery, so sweet and pretty!

    Lovely post as always my dear xxx
