This is a book cover I created for a fake Alice in Wonderland cover.

I wanted to illustrate Alice in some kind of way, so I did this buy adding Alice's hands and her ribbon but in a different colour.
I also wanted my pallete to include the colours we see a lot in the movie.
In the end I decided to add something which could illustrate the crazy world and I did that by adding the rabbit's pocket watch cracking. This showing the broken time/story/world.

Making my portofolio rn and I found this, I thought they're nice so I'm posting them

autumn, when everything looks both peaceful and dead🍂

I have so much on my mind so I wasn't very active, I'm sorry, I'm going to try my best to be more active from now on, but I can't promise anything:)

Buuut I have news I finally finished my website (after doing it and redoing it again and again SO many times😂).

It still not perfect, my portfolio isn't even done and I still have so many things I don't like but I'll keep changing when I have time.

Right now the important thing is you guys can access it yay:) (check bio)
(I used my logo for this post bc I don't have any posts prepared oops😬)

Maria Teodora Designs updated their website address.

🧊This is a fake ad for a fake aquarium I did for a project.

🧊Some facts about the creation of the it🧊

🧊It not perfect, I'm totally aware of that, as it's the first time I've ever drawn sea animals. But I still totally adore it and I'm so proud of it.

🧊The idea of the aquarium in the head of a person came from the fact that the aquarium is so fun that when you leave you can't get it out of your mind.

I've always had an appreciation for Marilyn Monroe, she's such an inspiration and a powerful woman. I totally had to use her for this project. ☕

🫐sorry sorry

🌿I have stretch marks from losing and gaining weight. I’ve always hated them and I’m still struggling with accepting them.

🌿I wanted to draw something to remind myself and others how beautiful stretch marks are and the idea of making them into leafs/flowers came to my mind.

🌿I thought this would be perfect for what I wanted because everyone sees nature pretty so I thought it would make everyone see the true beauty of stretch marks.

🪞For this fashion photography project my mum was my model. The way I chose her was by the fact that she was the perfect model for this as I like my models and theme to match with each other, gives more personality and feelings to the photographs, and she matched exactly with what I had in mind.

🪞This one doesn’t have much meaning of it but I adore the result and we had so much fun with creating this so it very close to my heart:)

“Don’t look at yourself thru their eyes” best advice I have ever got.

🌷I’ve been struggling, I could say all my life with how I look and this drawing is inspired by that. I wanted to make the body I’ve been hating for years colourful, beautiful, even though it was already stunning, but sometimes our minds trick us.

🌷I’m not going into detail about it because I don’t want to trigger anyone or teach anyone my bad habits. I just want to teach you what I’ve learned in this loong journey.

🌷First thing I want to say is that I’ve been insecure when I was skinny and fat. I’m saying this to show that anyone, no matter how perfect you think someone is they can still be insecure.

🌷Skinny, fat, full face of acne, clean skin, big/small features, short/tall or any other insecurity isn’t as ugly as you see it. The mirror is the biggest lier. That part of yourself that you call “ugly”, most of the time people don’t see it at all or see it as something beautiful .

🌷Fat isn’t an insult. Fat isn’t the synonym of ugly. Fat isn’t necessarily unhealthy. Fat is normal. Fat is beautiful. Stop teaching kids to think being fat is horrible. Everyone has fat on them, some of us less then others but that doesn’t mean we don’t and doesn’t make it wrong.

🌷Unhealthy doesn’t mean fat. Healthy doesn’t mean skinny. Healthy means exercising and eating healthy meals. A fat person could be healthy and a skinny person could be unhealthy because our bodies respond different to the healthy life.

🌷You could do the exact same exercise routine and plan meal as someone else and you’ll still look different. That’s because we’re humans, we’ve been created to be unique. You are unique, you can never look like someone else and that’s such a beautiful thing. If we all looked the same life would be boring.

🌷So if you feel good in your body have/don’t have acne, have/don’t have stretch marks, have/don’t have big features, be fat/skinny. Be ANYTHING you feel good in.

🌷How YOU feel is the only thing that matters🤍🤍
