new WORK

Marion Cotillard in Vivienne Westwood

Pencil & Digital Colouring

(Detail)

The first image for the next installment of the

Lady Dior '4 City' campaign has surfaced.

This time Lady Dior finds herself in New York.

Where the last campaign was shot by Peter Lindbergh

this one has apparently been photographed

by quintessential New Yorker,

(and my personal fave) Annie Leibovitz!

I think it's so gorgeous.

Kind of went nicely with the new work I had to post :)

anke WECKMANN

I stumbled across the work of German-born

Illustrator, Anke Weckmann today,

and I'm SO glad that I did.

Currently based in London, Weckmann

has created work for pretty much EVERYONE,

including Poketo, Red Cap Cards, Plan B and

even Vogue Italia. Ooooo-aah!

I absolutely adore it, and just spent a small

fortune (and alot of indecisive minutes) on a couple

of prints in her shop.

I just love.

new WORK

'Like a Tiger'

Pencil & Digital Colouring

Based on a photograph by Annabel Wendt

I don't know what's in my water at the moment,

but I don't think i've ever been so productive in my life!

I've been working on some illustrations for my new website

and strangely finished most of it yesterday.

Today I still had the bug so did the above portrait

of little miss LoveMore, gorgeous girl that she is.

Albeit, you can't quite tell from this pic -

apart from those amazing legs!

However, this little creativity spurt is about to end.

I'm off to Melbourne tomorrow so won't be doing alot

aside from shopping, dinner, exhibitions and visiting friends!

Fun fun fun!

Hope some of you can make it to Kelly T's show on Thursday.

Enjoy the rest of the week!

new WORK

'Braided'

Pencil & Watercolour

Okay, so technically this isn't NEW as such.

It was done at the beginning of the year

for something else but ended up on the

'I Still Like You But You're Not

Quite Right For This' scrap-heap.

I just re-discovered it so I thought i'd share.

I'm in the process of re-doing my website

so in the meantime I've created a flickr account

so that my portfolio is back online.

If anyone has a good tip for online folios

PLEASE let me know!

I design all my pages myself, but I don't

have great web skills so a friend of mine

codes it all up for me, but that makes it hard

for me to update anything.

I want to link to a folio that is easy to update

but I can still incorporate my website design into.

Flickr is good but it's not great looks wise

and it's also hard to customise.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed your weekends.

I spent 30 minutes waiting in line

to see Transformers 2.

The things we do for boys.

show PONY

Another commission for hair product label,
Show Pony Professional.

I was asked to turn Macushla Burke's luscious photograph
into an illustration to be used for packaging and promotion
and to also incorporate a pony into the mix.
I used to LOVE my toy carousel when I was little,
(and to be honest I still get excited when I see the big
versions at theme parks and shows)
so I wanted to go with that idea with the crown.

Hope the weather isn't as dismal for all of you
as it is here for me. It has been raining non stop all day.
I could probably go swimming in my backyard!

stina PERSSON

So, one of my absolute favourite fashion illustrators
is Swedish lady, Stina Persson.
She's just BEYOND amazing and has always
been a huge inspiration to me and my work.


Another of my favourite ladies, you may have noticed,
is la Frenchie, Marion Cotillard.

Imagine, if you will, my thrill at seeing images of Marion
at a Cannes reception for the upcoming film version of 'Nine'
standing in front of a portrait of herself
done by none other than....STINA PERSSON.

luxe ACCESSORIES

I was commissioned by Luxe Accessories

to create an image for their Spring/Summer 09 collection

'Cops & Robbers' featuring their 'Tilly' bag.

I loved every minute of this job!

The only downside (or upside - whichever way you see it)

is that I've now become a bit too obsessed with the whole line.

So much so, that i've ordered these little gems:

Love, love LOVE!

If you too love what you see, head over to their website

and choose a few of your own delicious pieces!

www.luxeaccessories.com

For those of you in Melbourne, Luxe is stocked

in Down Yonder at 485 Malvern Rd, South Yarra.

The 'Cops & Robbers' collection will be in stores from July.

Maciek Kobielski.

I salute you.

jessica HART

Jess Hart for Gestuz

I think this first image has to be the definition of HOT.

Jess Hart looks so unbelievably gorgeous in these

shots for label, Gestuz.

I haven't been able to find out the name of the

photographer, but if anyone knows please tell me.

These images are stunning!

Hope you all enjoyed your weekends.

I indulged in a little too much punch

and woke up with an axe in my head.

Metaphorically speaking, of course.
