My collaboration with Diptyque Paris in Beverly Hills this past Thursday was amazing! I loved customizing @diptyque candle boxes with my illustrations for so many lovely fashion and beauty influencers in Los Angeles!

The event, ‘Materials That Stir Emotions’, celebrated the Beverly Hills release of the newest limited edition Diptyque candle duo, Lys + Narguile, a spring collection.  The two candles transport one to Moroccan riads with their scents when paired and burned together. I was only too happy to contribute to the experience with emotion evoking watercolors.  Check out more pics + videos from the event HERE.

It was a lot of fun to connect with so many new peeps in our LA beauty and fashion community and to personalize the boxes for their chosen candle duos! 💖 Everyone loved their boxes, and I enjoyed painting them so much! 

Thank you @jennyong @mybelonging @thestylesauce @amyserrano @monicawangphoto @tylynnnguyen @dathias and so many others for sharing your beautiful photos and videos of my live painting on Instagram! 🙏 You are my unofficial photogs 😜 I really enjoyed meeting you, you guys rock! 💖

Thank you SO much for having me, Diptyque! 🙏 Your amazing team was so kind and generous, and I appreciate the warm welcome. I had an amazing time and was thrilled to paint live customizations at your beautiful store in Beverly Hills, can’t wait to return!

Have you guys noticed Instagram was down ALL DAY yesterday?? Whaaat? It's like something was missing ;) Well, actually something WAS missing: the chance for my IG friends to snag 20% off all my HAND PAINTED T-shirts and free shipping, that's what!

Hi guys,

I’m beyond excited to introduce to you my new collection of HAND PAINTED fashion illustration T-shirts! That’s right, hand painted!  This T-shirt collection was born from my dream of merging my artwork with fashion, of creating artwork in a wearable form.  I’ve always dreamed of seeing my paintings worn by everyone!  And what better way to start this off than with a T-shirt, a staple in our day to day wardrobes that can be worn so many ways, dressed up or down.  A T-shirt becomes a blank canvas, and under my brush, it turns into a wearable work of art, created especially for you here in my Los Angeles studio!

To celebrate the launch of my new collection, I'm extending a VIP SPECIAL OFFER of 20% off all orders NOW thru Wednesday 3/13 at 11:59PM PST !  And all US shipping is FREE! 

To unlock this offer, simply visit my shop at Cristina Tudor Shop and enter code VIP20 at checkout (offer includes all T-shirts and art prints in my shop).  Offer expires on Wednesday 3/13 at 11:59PM PST !

I can’t wait to see how you wear and style your T-shirt, how you make it all … you! The sky is the limit with these tees: pair them with high waisted jeans, half-tuck them in a pencil skirt, or even add them to shiny black leggings with a blazer and some sparkly earrings for a fun night out - which is how I plan to wear my 'Pink Plumeria' tee this Thursday at my live painting event with Diptyque Paris in Beverly Hills. I'll share my outfit pics from the event and my styling tips with you on Instagram @thecristinatudor on Thursday, so meet me on IG.

Check out my full collection of 10 designs and share code VIP20 and my shop https://cristina-tudor-art.myshopify.com/ with your BFF or favorite boss lady, too, cuz life is better when shared with friends! :)

Yay, it’s March!  Painting this for you made me feel like it's practically spring!  And I’m loving all the spring colors, especially the purples and yellows of tulips against that pretty spring green.  The calendar for March, Tulip Girl, was inspired by tulips and yellow hats, those fresh spring smells when everything is in bloom, and more sun than we’ve seen here in LA this winter with all the rains and even SNOW last week!  Whaaat??

Didn't get my March calendar?  Sign up at cristinatudor.com today, and it'll pop right into your inbox!

Here's a behind the scenes peek at my illustration process:

I hope you like Tulip Girl, and if you do, please let me know.  I would love to hear back from you and know that you’re enjoying my monthly calendar!  Leave a comment below, send me an email, or leave a comment on my Instagram post of the calendar at @thecristinatudor.  It would make my day to see your photos of it and feature them on my IG account, so tag me @thecristinatudor in your pics and use the hashtag #ctudorcalendar so I can find them :)
 
If you’d like to brighten up someone’s day, please share my website cristinatudor.com with them so they can sign up for my calendar, too - the minute they sign up, they get the current month's calendar immediately in their inbox.

I hope you enjoy Tulip Girl, and I hope she makes your month a little brighter!
Happy (almost) spring!
xo,
Cristina
