There is something so special that takes place in me when I create. I cannot explain it , but it comes to me so effortlessly . My favorite way to illustrate is with a black  Sharpie marker in hand and paper , I hook myself up to my iPod , let the music take me away and draw the Beauti I see in Music .

I drew these listening to ATB " Sunset Girl " and " Let U Go " .

My world is such a happy place when I can delve into my imagination and B Free , bc at that point nothing else matters , just the decision to create something beautiful and potentially make someone SMILE !

Lots of Love to you all ,

E

PS - http://www.studio33ny.com/ is my other Artists site , where I create everything and anything that pops into my mind !

She's Just So ZURI .....



Signature Splashes of Pink & Leopard Print , The Queen ZMC has arrived !


They say that Inspiration lies in every corner and that everything happens for a reason. I have always been a firm believer in that all my life. Wednesday night October 12th , I was invited by ZuriMcDaniels  to her Web Launch Party @ Bo Concept in NYC . All I can say is WOW  , WOW and  WOW again. It was amazing and such an honor & privilege to share with her in her moment . Now , for me this was my first BIG event and I was simply just mesmerized with how " BEAUTIFUL " she looked. She gleamed in radiance , she was AGLOW and I am not kidding you , she has arrived and the world is gonna know it.  Accompanied by her " beyond best friend "- her husband Darryl McDaniels ( The Legendary DMC of Run -DMC ) they were picture perfect. ( getting goosebumps just thinking about it ) .




Sharing in her delight of bringing to fruition the beginning of her acting career was very uplifting and very motivational to me , someone who has put her DREAMS on hold to attend to the duties of being a wife and the challenging duty of love .... motherhood . I think every woman can relate to her. She is such an approachable soul , you can literally walk right up to her , start up a conversation & she will engage you ... just like that , Zuri has this contagious smile and laughter . To know her is to love her.


Zuri McDaniels and Me ( Elizabeth ) 


Last night , listening to her express her heart about her dreams , her goals , her aspirations put everything into perspective for me , everything in this life is possible . Hard Work , Dedication and most importantly LOVE for your CRAFT , will take you places. And , she is living proof , she has stuck to her guns and never gave up . I keep sayin' this but the world is in for a TREAT , her time has come and I am oh , so PROUD of her ( you ) . 

Oh, and in case you didn't know what ZURI means , it means BEAUTIFUL in Swahili .

She made a poignant statement behind her the meaning of her name , 

" Every woman is Zuri "



 No matter what ethnicity you own , love yourself because we are all cut by the same  thread , we are all beautiful souls traveling this world , finding who we are and how we can make a difference.

To find out " Who is ZMC " ....

My suggestion >>>> go check out her site http://zurimcdaniels.com which has a new look so go and take a looksie  and Follow her on https://twitter.com/#!/ZuriMcDaniels. Become a part her TeamZMC .

And "Like" her FanPage on Facebook :

Much Love and Many More SUCCESSES !

P.S.

To sum it all up , there were many highlights to this magnificent evening that I will keep to myself bc somethings you just have to have for yourself , but I did leave there with an army of INSPIRATION , the City itself , the lights , the Music ,  the bold and beautiful colors , the mixture of beautiful souls all under one roof opened a whole new world of artistic creativity to flow from me . So stay tuned bc my sharpie markers are outta control as we speak .

The BEST Quote Ever .... Steve Jobs


“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.” – Think Different, narrated by Steve Jobs

Remembering an iCon R.I.P Steve Jobs

A year ago I converted into the Apple world . I had been using a PC forevvvvver , I had always heard such amazing things about the Apple computers but never thought that in a million years , that it would change my life. A year ago I finally got an iMac , the best invention in this world , thank you to the late and great Steve Jobs for thinking outside the box , following his gut and creating the most amazing products in technology in the 21st century. 

As I was tweeting last night , I  came across tweets that said R.I.P Steve Jobs , what , wait , who .... No way , I thought , that's impossible . There was a piece of me that just sunk , my heart felt a lil broken , I think where there is brilliance , where you see that there was someone who wanted to change the way the world operated and succeeded , it makes you appreciate what he did and what he was all about , in my opinion. 

I came across this image on http://pinterest.com/ and when I read what he said , it brought tears to my eyes . Why ? Because I too , am a creator , I am an ARTIST , I love what I do , I live and breathe my career , I believe in my DREAMS and making them come true despite what other's may think. That " inner voice " he speaks of , that voice that we try to shut up because we are scared of what could be , if we stick to our guns and follow our hearts. That inner voice that needs to be heard. I say , never SILENCE your DREAMS , they are there for a reason , to better our world in some way. Steve Jobs followed his heart , listened to his inner voice and you see where that got him , he revolutionized the computer world as we know it.

Thank you and my thoughts and prayers are with the Jobs Family.
