PHOTO OF THE DAY - 2016 BEST NINE BY ÀSÌKÒ

So the year 2016 is wrapping up in a few hours, and everyone is chanting the New year resolution mantra, giving notes, quotes and epilogues, with the popular one on Instagram #2016BestNine . These notes with artistic pictures from Asiko, a London based, Nigerian photographer took the words out of my mouth, it is practically some of what I learnt in 2016. *You know I love me some deep, artistic, beautiful, storytelling work of arts* So I had to share.

@Asiko_artist What I learnt in 2016

1. Be patient and job st keep creating

2. You are responsible for your happiness

3. Working projects is a more fulfilling way to build a portfolio and a lasting legacy, random one off shoots are out.

4. Collaboration with the right people, are beautiful things to be treasured.

5. The work you put out are like messages in a bottle, you never know how they will come back to you, but they will in ways you never expect.

Releasing 2016 and opening my heart and arms to 2017, it is going to be an amazing one.

My nine of the best from 2016 (well at least as Instagram says anyway) #love #art #photography #portrait #asiko #potd #portraitphotographer #2016bestnine - by Asiko

CULLED FROM MONDAY RANDOM - WHAT IS ON FLEEK

Good day lovelies and a Happy Easter celebration, hope you all had a wonderful time out? For me it was food all the way, I hope to bring my culinary expertise here soon. So back to the matter, WHAT IS REALLY ON FLEEK? Sounds like a Rhetorical question and a direct question. Lately on Social Media the phrase, slang or word fleek and the question what have you got on fleek has been trending, as Social media has become the new world paradigm, it would be very difficult for you to cope if you don’t understand the trends. I first heard the word, fleek from Boity Thulo a South African presenter on club 808, as I was still trying to figure out the meaning and where it came from, I saw a very funny caption from my Fashion Entrepreneur friend UREZ of UREZ KULTURE. I am dedicating this post to her, because she inspired it with this funny question on BBM ...
