Hello Friends!
Well sorry for the long absence from posting.
I've been painfully swamped on projects, and have been working non-stop.
i'm really happy to show you this new painting.
I love Vlada & Vogue Nippon, and Ben Hassett's photo was incredible.
Just seemed like a perfect photo to paint.

Me + Friends In Vogue Nippon May 2010

Hey Friends!
Got some great news!
I'm in Vogue Nippon!
I'm so excited!
I've been a big big big Fan of Vogue Nippon for awhile!
Actually, one of the first Vogue covers i ever drew was a Vogue Nippon cover of Heather Marks.
Ok Yea, so the magazine arrived today,
and it was amazing thumbing through the issue and seeing so many of my web friends in there.
Early in the issue, i stumbled on the lovely and wonderful Miss Pandora, Louise Ebel.
Then in the Social Media Sections, it was great seeing Jane Aldridge (seaofshoes) & Judy Aldridge (Atlantis Home), Tavi Gevinson (The Style Rookie), Bryanboy, Susie Lau (style bubble), and Julia Frakes (Bunny BISOUS)!
I have to say it was so trippy having my picture next to Carine Roitfeld (French Vogue)! hahaha
i wish i could read Japanese cause the issue looked amazing!
Oh also if you noticed the painting on the third image...
That is a blogger Portrait i did of Tomoko Suzuki who is Vogue Nippon's blogger.
Check out her blog at VogueJapan.blogspot.com.
I hope you're having a wonderful day! :)

Heather Marks Vogue Nippon

So two day went fast; got a lot done.
i listened to an album of all Fred Astaire songs.
It was so GOOD! i love Fred Astaire, he is amazing. :)
Oh also had my first in person interview today.
It was fun, alot different than doing interviews over email.

The drawing today i did a while back.
It's pretty funny, this person had started a Myspace profile pretending to be Heather Marks(model),
and at the time, i believed it,
so i did this drawing and sent it to her, all excited to see what she thought of it only to find out....
... oh yes, it was a fake account....
hahahaha i was suckered.
Oh well, if it casued me to make this picture, i'm not mad at it ;)
haha Have a great night!
