Alexander McQueen Sketch

The talented Alexander McQueen... I did it while back in summer after visiting his incredible exhibition at the MET.

I got so inspired  I couldn't help but making a little sketch of him.

Kate Moss in pink

Hello everyone!

I am still here... So sorry I've been posting so inconsistently (or better to say not posting at all) lately.

It has been a fun summer though. 

I have been renewing my website with the help of my friend Alvaro... I really liked what he did, you can check it out here...

This is an illustration I did for it, it started as quick Kate Moss sketch to practice profiles for another project I've been working on... and after a few tries (that I will share later) the very final looks like this! and I just love it!

Hope this will make it up for my absence =)

my RayBan elephant

A few months ago I was working on a project about animals, and I got so inspired by these creatures that I wanted to illustrate them... at the end the idea evolved  and ended up in this Ray Ban elephant that I like very much...=)  It reminds me of my friend Eva, she is 100% RayBan girl...

codie young

Who says 17 was young and inexperienced??

According to some she is to be the next Gemma Ward...

Codie Young

The beautiful dreamy-eyes-17-years-old-australian girl has already modeled for the big ones at the fashion shows not to mention some editorials and covers for vogue...

Perhaps that's why Australian Vogue titled this editorial Perfectly Pretty?

I must admit she reminds me of a perfect porcelain doll. And again, she's only 17 !!

Proenza Schouler Spring Summer 2011

The illustration is one of Proenza Schouler Spring Summer 2011 ad campaign. Models Melissa Tammerijn & Julia Nobis by Willy Vanderperre.

The suggestion to see the campaing came from the Igor+Andre, one of my favorites illustrators' Blog.

And when I saw it I just felt the urge to take the brushes and start.

I love the simplicity of it and yet all the content and meaning in each of the pictures. Masculine and feminine melting seamless, delicate seduction...the ethereal soft feeling.

I used many different media, I think there is a touch of everything I have in it and really like how it turned out!

And for the weekend

It has been a not so painting week for me. I got a new studio, so have been packing and unpacking from the old to the new and been doing some "decoration" (if I could call it that way)... I will post some pictures when it is ready.

Any way I did this illustration a few weeks ago and just want to quickly post it for you to enjoy over the weekend!

I really like it because it is one of my favorites models, Sasha Pivovarova, wearing a incredible red velvet jacket design by the talented Alexander McQueen.

Hope you like it as much as your weekend =)

Special Classsssss

Yesterday was a very special day.

It has been almost 8 months since my favorite and dear yoga teacher JD moved to the East Coast, and yesterday he came to NY for a unique  class... and I just couldn't missed it   =) !

I enjoyed it so much!!!.. and of course, I am so soared from it...!

Any way... I though this illustration for today (that has nothing to do with yoga except for the almost acrobatic body pose), it was inspired by an outfit from Lula's Magazine S/S 2009, you can check their website here! 

Great images and great inspiration for me =)
