farewell

I am completely devastated at the moment. After a week of call-searching for my beautiful open front leather blazer that I forgot on the plane, I don't think it will be found. I know that I definitely left it on the flight, which means they eventually they would turn up...and if not, someone must have taken it. Why would someone do that! So now I am looking everywhere for a replacement. If anyone sees one like the picture attached, please let me know.

I hope you like what I've done with her!

Something I've been working on today, a watercolor portrait inspired by the current weather, festivals and artichokes. (which was everywhere in florence, this seasons food!)

Ana Laura Perez.latest crush

Ana Laura Perez studied fashion design and is now a freelance designer and also makes jewelry for her own brand ALPS. Her creations are so feminine and surreal; both her illustrations and textile designs. Her inspirations are "color palettes and scales, shadows and lights, crystals, old nature, encyclopedias, white and gold, sea creatures, textures and shine, moss, draping, darkness and feminity, hidden treasures."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ken Garduno

Ken Garduno's work is not usually the kind of style that I have posted about and not exactly under the style of fashion illustration. However, there is something intriguing about the fine lines in some of his pieces that comes together and results in a  perfectly feminine illustration. I think it's also something to do with my fetish with swirls in drawings, especially hair. Below are a few of my favourites. You can also follow him on his blog and view work from his sketchbooks.
