Gosh I’m awful at remembering to update you lately. It’s been a busy time. To bring you up to speed: Wellington Fashion Week was a good time for anyone interested in clothing. The setting at the former museum was inspired and the white hair-do was amazingly beautiful.
I’m just fluffing around the house this week. Mooching in my kimono, getting over a cold, before I head to Wellington Fashion Week on Friday.
Due to lack of other material, I’m going to expose another of my dorky pastimes. Each time I put flowers in the house I take a photo. Here’s some of my favourites.
Some weeks I can't write about what I'm up to as it's not going to be released for a few weeks - months even - and is commercially sensitive. The last couple of weeks have been like that as I was shooting the saucy new Hallensteins Brothers TVC, which has just started screening on telly.
My fruity paint shoot just came out in Home. It was tricky to paint a bunch of bananas six shades of blue, but turned out to be worth it. The crop of the other shots doesn't work on this site but you can see them on karlyasmith.com
My weekday schedule hasn’t changed much since Kindergarten. Rise whenever I wake, eat some breakfast - preferably toast & spreads - then when the mood takes me play with paint.
I’ve several unusual past times. One I don’t mind admitting to, is drawing shoe portraits. Fate met fantasy a couple of months ago when Jo, the owner of my favourite Auckland shoe store Mei Mei, asked me to draw some of their new season styles. These are slightly dodgy screen grabs of them, but you get the idea.
