ana ventura

something that attracts me to this artist from lisbon, ana ventura. her whimsical style and romantic (for lack of a better word) blog is intriguing and inspiring. perhaps because it's all in portuguese and i can't understand a thing ('cept for the odd latin-based word); makes it all that more mysterious, hence intriguing. here's her professional site. and she has the coolest name. make sure to look for some photos of an installment of large dolls in a garden with embroidery designs all over them - which from what i could understand is inspired by an old tradition of fiance kerchiefs?
