Pop Painting By Camilla d'Errico

I have another book review for you today! It is about a book called 'Pop Painting' by: Camilla d'Errico. Here is a little about the book:
Get ready for a behind-the-scenes look at the painting tools, methods, and inspirations of one of the top artists working in the growing field of Pop Surrealism. For the first time, beloved best-selling author and artist Camilla d’Errico pulls back the curtain to give you exclusive insights on topics from the paints and brushes she uses and her ideal studio setup, to the dreams, notions, and pop culture icons that fuel the creation of her hauntingly beautiful Pop Surrealist paintings. 

With step-by-step examples covering major subject areas such as humans, animals, melting effects, and twisting reality (essential for Pop Surrealism!), Pop Painting gives you the sensation of sitting by Camilla’s side as she takes her paintings from idea to finished work. This front row seat reveals how a leading artist dreams, paints, and creates a successful body of work. For fans of Camilla and the underground art scene, aspiring artists looking to express their ideals in paint, and experienced artists wanting to incorporate the Pop Surrealist style into their work, Pop Painting is a one-of-a-kind, must-have guide.



I had just started to paint again, and was looking for a book to help inspire me. Camilla d'Errico's Pop Painting was the perfect book for that! The artwork in it is so beautiful, with amazing technique. I loved learning how Camilla d'Errico does her art work and love the 'behind-the-scenes' look into her art. I love that this book has opened a new door into art for me that I had not know was there.

Thank you as always for reading!

Reviews of Acrylic Paints

I have been wanting to get back into painting. And I am so glad that I did with this Non-Toxic Acrylic paint. To start with I love that this paint is so thick and easy to apply.  Another thing that i really love is you have to pop it open! Some acrylic paints do not have that foil piece and when you open them, it just explodes out, this one does not!
Once you break that little foil piece, it comes out super easy, so you do not have to squeeze and squeeze to get it out! I think my absolute favorite thing about this one though is it dries super quickly! This is nice so I can add layers quickly, without having to wait too long for it to dry. I can not wait to use this paint more!
I received this product at a discount for my honest review.

I will be upload more painting soon so stay tuned for those!
Thank you for reading!

Roybens 50s Women Retro Floral Skull One Piece Swimsuit




Its almost summer, and I really needed a new swimsuit. When I saw this one I fell in LOVE with it! I have always loved this style of clothing and knew when I saw it, I had to have it. Before I go into details about how amazing this swimsuit is, here is a little about it:

EYE-CATCHING And ECLECTIC: Bright vibrant colors and hearts, dice, roses, cats, birds, poker, butterfly, flowers, peacock, sugar skulls on it.

GORHEOUS And ADORABLE: The retro style is a sexy cut, vibrant,Boy-Leg. The print is fabulous and the Lined in plaid. The necktie is the perfect length.
EXTREMELY HIGH QUALITY: Super sturdy fabric. The strong fabric is a double layer of EXTREMELY high quality material. It's definitely capable of giving a smooth silhouette and is basically shape wear.

RETRO STYLE:Unique 50s Retro(Vintage) halter classic shape bathing swimsuit. It has an adorable plaid trim around it and all inside, The cut is super feminine and fits well.
MORE SURPRISES: (1)Fun colors, quality fabric and craftsmanship, The push-ups make you boobs look amazing(2) It hugs in the right places and is great for curvy women(3) The suit has two layers so you don't have to worry that it's see-through (4) You cant stop looking at it, there are so many cute things in the design.(5) Sweet heart neckline is very flattering.

So I just want to say again that I love 50s retro style! Especially on this swimsuit. The cut and pattern are beautiful! The style is a classic vintage halter shape bathing suit with a gorgeous print that has hearts, dice, roses, cats, birds, poker, butterfly, flowers, peacock, sugar skulls on it. Also a very beautiful plaid lining inside (I would totally wear it inside out because of how pretty the inside is). The material is so luxurious and feel amazing on my skin! I normally wear a 15-16 so I ordered the XXXL (US 14-16) and I was a little worried that it wasn't going to fit me because of all the reviews saying it was made super small. Well when I tried it on the fabric did make a stretching sound, but fit me beautifully! It made me feel so sexy and beautiful I love it! Definitely a bathing suit I would recommend!
