HERE KITTY KITTY

I'M ALWAYS ON THE LOOKOUT FOR PICTURES OF CLOTHING MADE BY MY FAVORITE DESIGNER THIERRY MUGLER. IT'S NOT AS EASY AS YOU'D THINK! I STUMBLED ACROSS A GIF MADE OF THE A/W 1982 MUGLER SHOW FEATURING SOME FABULOUS MODELS IN CAT-SUITS. I GOT TO DRAWING RIGHT AWAY! I USED THE SAME BODY AND CHANGED UP THE ARMS AND FACES. I HAVE A FEELING I'LL BE RE-DRAWING THESE FASHION KITTIES OVER AND OVER.

WHO'S THE FAIREST OF THEM ALL?

                       

 VERTIGO COMICS' 'FABLES' IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE BOOKS TO READ. 'FABLES' TELLS THE STORIES OF FAMOUS CHARACTERS FROM LITERATURE EXILED TO OUR MODERN WORLD. EACH ISSUE HAS MORE ODD TWISTS AND TURNS THEN THE FAIRY TALES THEY WERE ORIGINALLY BASED ON.  THE CHARACTER WITH THE MOST COMPLEX STORY IS DE-FACTO LEADER OF THE CREW, SNOW WHITE. 

I WAS INSPIRED TO DO A PAPER DOLL SET OF SOME OF SNOW'S IMPORTANT LOOKS FROM THE COMIC. WE HAVE SNOW'S CLASSIC PRINCESS LOOK. Miss WHITE IN HER BUSINESS SUIT, SNOW AS SHE APPEARED IN THE '1001 NIGHTS OF SNOWFALL' STORY,  HER SAFARI SUIT AND FINALLY MOMMY SNOW WITH HER SIX WOLF CUB KIDS. THE MAIN DOLL SHOWS SNOW AT HER PIN-UP BEST. 

NOW, PRINT, CUT OUT THE DOLLS (INCLUDING THEIR FACE HOLES!) HAVE FUN WHILE YOU WAIT FOR PRINCE CHARMING TO SHOW UP.

BLACK IS THE NEW BLACK

FOR SOMETHING THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE FILLED WITH SO MANY CHOICES, FASHION CAN BE VERY LIMITING. IF THEY TELL YOU FLORAL PRINTS AND FLOPPY HATS ARE WHAT'S IN THIS SEASON, THEN THAT'S WHAT'S AVAILABLE TO BUY, AND WHAT CHOICE DO WE HAVE? 

EVERYONE KNOWS THAT BASIC BLACK IS THE GO-TO TREND FOR FASHIONISTA'S. SO I PRESENT THE BLACK IS THE NEW BLACK FASHION COLORING PAGE! JUST DON'T GET TOO OVERWHELMED TRYING TO DECIDE WHAT COLORS TO USE. BUST OUT YOUR BLACK SHARPIE'S AND GET CREATIVE, KIND'A . . . SORT'A . . . JUST TRY TO THINK TOO FAR OUTTA THE BOX.

DROP AND GIMMIE 5!!!

ALONG CAME A SPIDER . . .

THIS WEEKEND I GOT ALL CAUGHT UP IN THE WEB OF MY NEWEST HIPSTER-HERO, HIPSTER SPIDER-MAN. IT TOOK ME 12 HOURS TO FINISH THIS PIECE ON A SUNNY SATURDAY. I'VE INCLUDED THE ORIGINAL SKETCH AND A PIC OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE AT MY DESK WHEN I'M WORKING ON A NEW ARTISTIC MASTERPIECE (if i do say so myself! Ha!) I THINK THIS TURNED OUT GREAT! I CAN'T WAIT TO MAKE ANOTHER HIPSTER-HERO. MAYBE ONE WITH A THUNDEROUS TEMPER . . . hehehe

IN CASE YOU MISSED MY 1st  HIPSTER HERO, HERE'S MY HIP CAPTAIN AMERICA

PUNK PRINCESS

THIS IS MAYBE THE 4th OR 5th VERSION OF THIS VIVENNE WESTWOOD PUNK OUTFIT I HAVE DRAWN. SOME WERE OK-ish, SOME LOOKED BAD, AND SOME GOT LOST!

THIS ONE I DID TO GO IN A "FASHION COLORING BOOK" I WAS WORKING ON A WHILE BACK, BUT HAVE YET TO FINISH. I FOUND THE CLASSIC WESTWOOD "SQUIGGLE PRINT" IN A BOOK CALLED "1980's FASHION PRINT". EVEN THOUGH THIS PRINT IS WIDELY ASSOCIATED W/ THE WESTWOOD BRAND, IT IS ACTUALLY AN OLD PUCCI PRINT THAT WESTWOOD CO-OPTED.

HIJACKING THE PRINT OF AN ITALIAN SPORTSWEAR LABEL AND MAKING IT YOUR OWN, HOW PUNK IS THAT?

A BOY & HIS DOG

I HAVEN'T SEEN THE TV CARTOON 'ADVENTURE TIME' TOO MANY TIMES, BUT I SEE THAT 'ADVENTURE TIME' FAN ART IS RIFE ONLINE. I LOVE THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE SO INSPIRED BY THIS ANIMATED WORLD. SO I DECIDED TO THROW MY HAT INTO THE ADVENTURE-FAN-ART RING. I'VE BEEN PRACTISING DRAWING MEN MORE LATELY, SO I MADE FINN AND HIS DOG JAKE INTO GAY HUNKS! NOW LET'S SEE IF THIS PIECE CAN MAKE IT'S WAY INTO THE 'ADVENTURE TIME' FAN ART WORLD!

UPDATE: ONCE AGAIN MY ARTWORK HAS BEEN FEATURED ON COMICALLIANCE.COM !!! THEY'RE A GREAT WEBSITE AND I'M SO EXCITED TO BE INCLUDED IN THEIR FRIDAY ART ROUND-UP AGAIN.
