Psychedelic Vibing

"Hey, I think I'll take some psychedelics, and by the time I'm coming down, it'll be time to go onstage and I'll feel fine." Artwork I created in honour of NASA's space launch which was supposed to happen today..anyways, this piece is titled Space In Mind.

Happy B-Day Stevie!!

Happy Happy Birthday to this Gold Dust Woman!!

Bohemian Haul

Some more groovy stuff I recently ordered..giant mandala print beach blanket, 3 belts (soft faux leather with faux diamantes, 2 flower and 1 butterfly..the rose one is my fav.) I especially love the balls at the end of the belts making them super-groovy, and I heart these 1970s flower power daisy earrings in champagne colour, I love them so much I ordered another pair in silver.  These all came from Canasia.com.

Celestial Moonshine

I woke up with the song Spirit In the Sky playing inside my head and I don't mind it at all.

"To Hang Like Beaded Curtains Till the Morning Sun"

Daydreams of cotton candy fields, a daisy art piece in my eyes, and hippie summer thrifted delights.

All My Friends Know the Low Rider

That Friday feelin' in my brown denim, and Doors t-shirt.  I also sewed a retro daisy patch on the back of my 70s shorts..way groovy!!

Psych-Out Lookbook

I recreated a hippie style from the 1968 film Psych-Out..i loved what one of the girls wore, denim bellbottoms with floral fabric belt, plain t-shirt, and Indian necklace, I've added a hippie vest to my look.

1970s Style Bohemian Bedroom

Re-did my room a bit by putting up another décor, its like a flag, I don't know if this is from Bali, or Indonesia, not sure what they are called, its the décor on the right next to my two Boho dishes, also put up my moon tapestry, and my new beaded hanging décor that I heart so much, also the 2 mandala print pillows, one of them is a peacock mandala, these 3 items were ordered from Grandcrafts.com.  Marley prefers sleeping in his own bed, but sometimes I catch him napping on my bed. He's so sweet!!

Sunny Goodge Street

Took my own custom made denim jacket and orange velvet shorts out for a walk around the neighbourhood and found a groovy little park..and then I became a shadow figure captured by the Ghost Hunter team..Zach debunked me though..and my miracle eye drawing I made yesterday, I saw it on a site and its an actual sticker but since I couldn't order one, I created it myself and stuck it on my window.

'Cause I Wear Boots All Summer Long

It's a Stevie Nicks sort of day..

Took My Bob Dylan Hat Out For A Stroll

Escaped into nature with my 70s rock n roll outfit of the day..feeling like an Alice Cooper groupie in my snakeskin mini skirt, cowboy booties, and Bob Dylan-esque hat.

Like A Rolling Stone

Thinking of how much fun summer art camp was with friends a while back..sitting at the camp fire telling ghost stories..Pammy was so good at them!! She would tell us the "drip..drip" one about the maniac under the bed which scared us all!! There were no night lights inside our cabins so we'd leave a flashlight on or a kerosene lamp on til dawn.

Keep Smiling!

26 Albums for Each Letter of the Alphabet

This was such a groovy idea by Connie Mclean(Constantia) that I had to do one too..here are my 26 albums of the alphabet (some of them are the artist name instead if I couldn't find the letter), and most of the music is 60s & 70s & 90s mixed in:
A - Abbey Road - Beatles (I have to say that most of the Beatles albums I love a lot!! umm..i picked this album of theirs because its got my fav. song ever by them on it..Octopus's Garden..theirs so many good songs on it like Let It Be, Here Comes the Sun etc..)
B - Breakfast In America - Supertramp (one of the albums that I can listen to over and over and never get bored of it)
C - Cross of Changes - Enigma (nature paradise music..it takes me to far away exotic places and very relaxing..i usually meditate with this album)
D - Diamonds - Elton John (a fun album to listen to when feeling down, especially Crocodile Rock!)
E - Electric Light Orchestra (one of my most fav. 70s bands, great music to rollerskate to!)
F - France Gall - 1968 (she's one of my fav. French 60s singers and the songs are so poppy in a groovy happening way!)
G - Gold - Traffic (Dear Mr. Fantasy is hands down one of my fav. songs ever!!! its got a double cd of all their hit songs and more..its a groovy trippy album.
H - Hotel California - The Eagles (Glenn Frey is so dreamy!! one of the great bands with great harmonies and this is a groovy album to listen to in the car going on a long road trip)
I - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida - Iron Butterfly (another groovy trippy album..i love the song Flowers and Beads and also they have a super duper version of the album title song at the end..its like a whopping 17 minutes!!)
J - Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland (yess..Crosstown Traffic!! reminds me of a vintage vinyl shop in Ottawa by the same name..i miss that place a lot! Although my fav. Hendrix song is not on this album (Purple Haze), its still a groovy album to listen to! Jimi Hendrix is my guitar God always forever!!
K - K - Kula Shaker (the 90s album that got me back to being a flower child hippie..i love the Indian sitar vibes, there's also a song dedicated to the Grateful Dead on it, there's mantra music..its just an incredible album..i own all Kula Shaker albums they've ever done, but this one is still my most fav.)
L - Legend - Bob Marley (reggae king!! its groovy summer music!!)
M - Morrison Hotel - The Doors (i'm not too into the bonus tracks though, but the first part is heaven really!! Love Jim's voice, the band is beyond great, and Roadhouse Blues really gets me going in the mornings before heading off to art class (I miss my art classes a lot!!). Also love the song Peace Frog.
N - Naked Eye - Luscious Jackson (this is an ep with 4 songs in total, this is a 90s gem to own!!)
O - Odelay - Beck (another groovy 90s album!! I got into Beck when I first heard the song "Loser" and this is the best album he made..its got so many amazing songs on it like The New Pollution!
P - Poems Prayers & Promises - John Denver (Take Me Home Country Roads is a song my Grandad would play in the truck a lot when we'd go visit his farm in Plantagenet Ontario)
Q - Queens of Noise - The Runaways (a total rock n roll album!! love Cherie Curie's voice and guitar riffs..makes me wish I could be in an all girl band!!)
R - Rumours - Fleetwood Mac (huge Huge Stevie Nicks fan!! Go Your Own Way is fun to sing real loud in the car!!)
S - Sgt. Pepper - Beatles (another fav. of theirs!! Lennon/McCartney genius writing duo!!!)
T - Thunder Lightning Strike - Go Team! (fun times in high school & dancing in the lunch room!)
U - Ukuyeye - Mareva Galanter (I think this is a 90s album? her music is very catchy 60s pop like Pourquoi Pas Moi which was originally done by Stella in 1963)
V - Vortex - Candice Pacheco (techno tribal band D'Cuckoo..incredible African vibe music, very nature-y)
W - Wolfmother - self-titled album (since being a fan of Led Zeppelin, this band has recreated that amazing 70s rock sound..its one of my fav. albums to play when I feel lonely)
X - Xavier Rudd - Food In the Belly (amazing Australian guy who plays loads of instruments including my fav. didgeridoo, this sound is so much fun when I used to do Modern dance in Ottawa, there was a guy there who'd play this instrument when we danced..fun!!!)
Y - Yardbirds - (I got into them when I saw the 1966 film Blow-Up online and loved the film a lot! And there's a groovy concert scene near the end when the Yardbirds play on the stage and it got me loving their music!!)
Z - Led Zeppelin 2 & 3..LOOOOVE this band!!!

Mystical Sun Bowie

Backyard adventure taking my Bowie t-shirt outside..this is what I would've worn to a 1970s Bowie concert..complete with my platform space boots.  And 3 artwork I did a while ago..recreation of I believe its Vassarely or Calder?? and my interpretation of a mystical sun at night..
