ART/ROOM 05

ART/ROOM / LYOZIN MICHAEL x STYLE AT HOME / tahsin, the good

peach, pink, black, cream.

if i had things my way, my whole house would revolve around these colours. they are bright, fun and not overly girly. right? i said not overly. and whatever man, three girls out of four people means we get final say! haha. sorry mase.

this art is gorgeous. the colours are on point. and to me, that’s a huge part of what makes art good. your strokes may be genius and done just so, but if your colours are off, then sorry chief. you do not get a pass from me. which is the funny thing about art. what may look appealing and incite a wowowowow to my eyes, may totally turn you off.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right?

anyway, this is a mixed media piece by russian artist lyozin michael and i really love it.

this space is styled to perfection, perhaps too perfect for me. but it’s nice aspiration/inspiration. i have always wanted open shelving, but never thought it practical with all that cooking splatter. it’s really nice though. perfect for little vignettes and displaying art and well designed items. and obviously all that white. drool on the face.

art/room is my pairing of a space with artwork that would look good in it. i have always dreamed of curating peoples homes with artworks and findings, so this is my place to play a little.

 

 

 

SOME THINGS / 2

FRANZ KLINE / tahsin, the good

i’m going to be attending the halal food fest this weekend. i’m pretty excited because 1. i love food and 2. i never made it last year. last year i had just had niyya and while we were planning to go, it just didn’t make sense timing-wise with the little one. so i’m so glad to be going this year to check out what halal food vendors my city and beyond has to offer.

that’s how we muslims roll. we seek out halal food spots so we can get our grub on. we like to eat meat, and the menus at the regular restaurant that doesn’t serve halal meat get cut in half, most times more. seafood just isn’t enough all the time. actually, i’m ok with it. but more times when we eat out, we want the variety. the option to eat everything on the menu if we wanted. its about choice. and like i said, we like meat.

so this fest is in its second year and judging by the turnout last year it will be busy! with good food and a diverse mix of people. i love that. and actually i’m going to be hosting a meet + greet on sunday at the fest, so if you’re planning to attend, please come and say hi! i’d love to meet you. its my first official meet + greet too, so… please come by and say hi. ok?

a few things before you come -

1. check out halalfoodie.com to get your mouth watering. this site has all the reviews you’ll want and need when it comes to halal eating. and,

2. buy your tickets now! you will be sad (and hungry) if you don’t. they are $5/person, 16 and under free.

also, don’t you just love the colours in this franz kline piece. they are soooo beautiful. like oh my god, amazing.
