Just a tip..
I just watched an amazing documentary starring Annie Leibovitz. Annie is a world known photographer, specialized in portraits if I’m not mistaken. I just absolutely love to watch documentaries like this one. There are no words to describe the feeling you get inside, the wanting to create something, to do something. I’ve been feeling a bit off lately, so a push like this one really...

Don't worry, I'm alive..
Howdy everybody, I know.. I suck. I’m really bad at updating. But I’m working on it, and frankly, there’s not much I can show off yet.. However, the new issue (no. 8) is due to come out any day now and THEN I can start to show some of the stuff I’ve been doing lately. I’ve also made a few painting for my appartment that I’d like to show.. Nothing spectacular,...

I'm back!
Today was my first day back at Femina, and oh my god am I glad to be back!! And this time, not as an apprentice, but as a “summer-substitute” or whatever I should call it. The point is I’m staying for atleast 3 months! Finally, finally I have a real job as a graphic designer! So it pretty much took me exactly one year after uni from today to get to this point. “This...

Summerish
Today it’s aaalmost summer outside. Well, at least it’s sunny outside, and that’s the key point! Right? I’m sorry I haven’t been posting much lately, I don’t know why, but I’m going to blame the dog, just to have something to blame it on.. You see I’m babysitting my brothers dog now for a month or so, and it has changed my life quite a bit!
Now I...

Promarkers
It’s a promarkers day today! Trying to learn how to draw with them, so much fun! Watching youtube tutorials really help.. But it’s still hard! Especially for someone like me who isn’t extremely talented when it comes to drawing.. I keep trying to blame my bad shading on different things, just a few minutes ago I blamed the fact that I dont have enough different colors to get the...
Words of wisdome is to come
Hi guys, Sorry I’ve been so off. But vacation overtook me. Hehe. Sooo nice to be able to sleep until noon and do absolutely nothing all day. But my fingers have finally begun to itch a bit, they want to draw and do photoshop-magic. So you wont have to wait much longer.. Soon Ascaa will be back with lots of photos and art. :) I’ve found about a thousand pictures that inspires me, and...

Arrivederci ?
Today is my last day at Femina. It feels weird, but I’m not sad. I’ve had a great time and I’ve learnt so much. But the biggest gift of them all is that I finally know what I want to do in life. It’s a great feeling and something I thought I’d be the last one to find out.. Turns out I found out at 21, so now I have better things to do in life than walking around...

My last week
So this is my last week at Femina. It’s sad, but I was supposed to leave in February, so I’m happy I got to stay until now. I have these weird mixed feelings about all of this that I can’t describe. I’ll have to get back to you once I’ve figured it out. Anyways, we’re one short this week, so there’s a lot of work to be done! toodles!

A picture paints a thousand words
So you guys like it when I draw? I really see a difference between when I post a layout and when I post something I drew.. Maybe I should draw a bit more? It’s fun, and it’s even more fun when I see that people appreciate it! Keep it going guys, you have no idea how flattered I get when you reblog my posts!
I drew another picture a couple of days ago, one that I’m going to frame...

Cashhh...
As you all know, I’m broke. I have an appartment, I’d like to think that I have a life, and I have no income besides the tiny amount of money I make “working” as an apprentice. The normal me would probably say something like “this sucks..”, but I wont. I chose this and I’m going to push myself until I’ve made it. How fun is life without some setbacks...

If you happen to care
Good morning to all of you! I’m just loving today. The sun is shining, i have the sickest, brightest orange sweater on and as if that wasn’t enough, it’s pancakes day here at work today! Wohoo! I’m making a layout of bikinis right now (might be one of the reasons for why I feel so “summerish”) and wow.. This is probably one of the hardest things I’ve...

How many are you?
Hi guys! Yesterday I got the new March issue! This is the first issue where I’ve made quite a lot of the content. I was nervous (again) when I opened the magazine, scared that something would be wrong.. I wonder how many issues it takes until that disappears? From one thing to another, I can’t see how many that’s reading my blog, how often you read it nor how long you stay on my...
Where did you go?
I’m still alive!! I know the blog has been dead for a couple of days but that’s just because I haven’t had access to internet while moving. But, woman as I am, I totally fixed that problem, all by myself! So now I have a functioning internet, and I’m back in the game, stronger than ever! Now I have room for all my graphic design stuff, and I feel the creativity itching in...

Fashion addict?
I love… and hate fashion. I love what a great power fashion holds. How strong you can feel in an outfit. How much you can crave a specific clothing, how you can fall in love with a photo shoot cause of the clothes the model is wearing. I hate how fashion sometimes can break people down. “Force” people to buy a specific wardrobe or make some people feel uncomfortable when they...

I have no words.. or do I?
Oh my god! I just got a copy of the February number, with my first layouts EVER in it! You have no idea how scary it is to open your first magazine and see your first layouts.. What if something’s wrong? What if it doesn’t look the same at all? What if it’s just plain ugly!? What if.. What if..What if.. Well, turns out everything looks just the way I imagined, but better!...

I can’t wait until i get to decorate the place JUST the way i want it!! It’s my deam appartment. White, bright, top floor with a tiny balcony that shows the view of a million rooftops. I can see everything but no one can see me....

Monday morning
Tomorrow is monday! And I start working around 8. Monday mornings always start with breakfast at the office while were having a meeting about the magazine! Pretty sweet way to start working actually.. I can’t believe I’ve already been at the magazine for about a month now.. Time moves so fast when you’re having fun. For the first time in a long time I’d hope time actually...
