This week, on Ilovegraphics.

This week will be the fourth week for Ilovegraphics. Which means I’ll be celebrating my first month as an amateur blog writer — yay for my newbie glory!
It also means that my vacation are already done – yay for going back to work! (sardonic tone here.)

So, for the weekly resolutions round-up, what am I going to do to celebrate my soon-to-be fame and conquest of the world?

• Thanks my readers.
Already a hundred suscribers to the RSS feed… This is much more than I expected!
Ilovegraphics is a newborn blog, made to share thoughts about what I love in life (mainly graphic design, that is) : feel free to share your own tremendous hobbys. The more fools, the more laugh. And thanks! 

• Upload some more stuff in my portfolio.
All of this is a bit dusty, it really needs some fresh stuff. 

• Not spending all my free-time doing nothing.
These vacations reminded me how much I like to do stuff during my free-time. I should try it again. Maybe. 

• Start anew. 
Have you ever felt that your life is at a turning point? That something exciting is going to happen?  
That’s weird ( and often disappointing on top of that.) 

• Enjoy my weekly pleasures more than ever.
Reading a lot of books, winter soups, buy a cake, eat mushrooms, drawing, riding my bike in the cold, play videogames and doing some letterpress.
I am so oldschool it hurts. But I’m never bored. Ah!  

That’s to say, stop doing nothing, as always. Which is mostly the point of taking resolutions. 
The picture is of my dining table ( and my grandma’s traditionnal french “buffet”). I’ve bought 3 italian vintage chairs from a thrift shop for 40€, and I just wanted to show off. For those who love vintage furniture porn, one of the incriminated chair after the break.

Have a terrific week, and remember that girls just wanna have fun^^.

Yatta!

For those of you missing the point, I suggest to go here.

I told you I would do it… Weekly resolution, here ya go! Ahah! Portfolio online, at last.
It’s finally on the rails, even if it misses plenty of old works. On a side note, I would precise that this is a personal portfolio — none of my professional work are shown here, by respect for the agency I’m working with. These are mainly old projects I’ve been working on at school or on my free-time. I’ll upload some more in the days to come, and will try to get some brand new stuff ASAP.

Thanks for your patience,
See ya!

Or: The tumultuous life of a designer and her virtual portfolio.

The time has came for me to write my first post. I first wondered what could be the possible subject of this pamphlet, since I’m still not sure about the main theme of the whole blog itself. And then, as bright as a shining star, came the idea… Let the first post ever be a post about the portfolio— and this way, a post about the genesis of this blog. At least, I know what I’m talking about.

I declare the blog officially open.

Might the posts be intelligible, and let the content flow!

Welcome!!
