RED.

Just some inspiration and reasons for my red hair<33

& my version:]!

Brooke Shaden

Have you guys heard of this photographer?

I absolutely love her style.

I love the idea of how every piece of her work speaks for itself & captures you with a story...

So lately I've been very inspired by young striving photographic artists.

Check out this girl's work, Brooke Shaden, that my best friend showed me yesterday:]

Antlers.

Now I know antlers have been in for a little while now, but I found so many captivating young artists inspired by designers and their use of them... 

Alexander Mcqueen Resort 2012

For some reason Sarah Burton seems to have a liking with bustles:]

This look is from the Alexander Mcqueen Resort 2012 collection

And this is from the Mcqueen Resort 2011 Collection

These are just some more looks that I love and appreciate as amazing inspiration for my own work.

Again from the Resort 2012 collection.

 Going back very quickly to the 2011 collection; I used this dress to draw for a final (Design Sketching II) but I used a different print!:]

Bill Cunningham New York

So yesterday I saw Bill Cunningham New York with the fashion club:]

I thought that Bill was such a genuine and incredible person in his own unique and suttle way. He really was an inspiration for being a optimistic person and not caring what others thought, but there were certain specific things in the movie that stood out to me...

First, that his life was fashion. It was clothes and nothing else. He didn't care about relationships. He didn't care about celebrities. Hah, he even said in the movie that Dita Von Teese was at an event, and someone thought he was an idiot for being the only person with a camera there not taking a picture of her. But, he just replied with, "I'm not a paparazzi photographer; I only care about the clothes and she wasn't wearing anything interesting." Haha, I thought that was great; plus the fact that he photographed everyone from couture and runways to the people straight from the streets.

Second, even Anna Wintour, who was interviewed for this documentary, was in awe of even talking about this man. In one section of the movie, in a crowd of paparazzi, she only stopped for him to take a photo of her. Wow! What an impact!

Third and lastly, that he was just a normal and cheerful guy, living a simple life as a photographer doing what he loved to do. Even at his own party/event he was having, a person had asked him why he was working because he was still taking pictures. He was like, "I'm not. This is my fun time." There is so much more I could say about the movie, but I'm just glad to say and know for a fact that people in the world such as Bill exist. :]]

Homework

Here are just a couple drawings & projects that I've done for homework in this quarter and last...

It's funny because I haven't really posted any of my work at FIDM online until the other day because, well, first of all it's just homework.. & second of all as an artist I've noticed that my friends and I always find something wrong with our work and it makes us skeptical as to whether we should even show people..

Just thought it was funny, but anyways enjoy:]
