Genies drive me crazy....and Scheherazade is telling stories...


New inspiration from children and folk tales. 1001 nights...

Genie:
A genie also jinn, djinn is a supernatural creature which possesses free will. The word genie comes from Latin genius, which meant a sort of tutelary or guardian spirit thought to be assigned to each person at their birth. From here the word developed to "spirit, incarnation, wit, talent" and much later came to mean "person of natural intelligence or talent".

1001 Nights have always been some of my favorite tales when I was a child. So Im inspired these days of some.... sitting on my bed, reading the stories of Scheherazade...the legendary persian queen..


..inspiration for the next few weeks...
