Aurelio Costarella PFF

So my lil' old blog is being featured in Perth Fashion Festival this year. I will be doing a series on Perth designers and this one is the first. The lovely Perth model Tammy Stone wearing my favorite designer Aurelio Costarella! I'm so happy with the way it turned out. Cant wait to frame it in an old gold gilt frame.

FASHIONWA.COM

I did this illustration for FASHIONWA about a year ago. It was adapted from a photo taken by the fabulous Penny Lane (another Perthie). It seems more relevant than ever to post it now because I have been watching Australia's Next Top Model which stars gorgeous WA girl Jessie Maloney! And Perth Fashion Festival is coming up...

399 Portraits #2

This is the second from the 399 Bar portraits. This is my favorite one because it has a darker more mysterious feel to it. It hasn't sold yet! Acrylic and paint pens on canvass.

399 Portraits

I was recently asked by 399 Bar, a lovely little place just down the street from me, to contribute four pieces to their walls. This one sold yesterday:) Definitely going to do some more like this! Acrylic, paint pens and spray paint on canvass, 61cm x 76cm

Isabeli Fontana

What to do for an old friend who recently moved into his very own bachelor pad and wants a piece for his wall? Super hot Isabeli Fontana of course! (with exaggerated 'boobage', his words, not mine). 1.6 x1.5M acrylic, paint pen and spray paint on canvass.

Alexander McQueen Fall 2010

Of the 16 pieces that were shown this was my favorite. The last pieces he ever laid hands on. Fortunately the label lives on. A gift for fabulous fashion writer Pip Christmass.

Lanvin SS10

A little b'day pressie for my lovely friend Nina. On the left is Tanya Dziahileva, Magdalena Frackowiak (who always reminds me of Nina) and Freja Beha Erichsen. Love this blog dedicated to Freja by the way. Black pen on watercolour paper.

Christian Lacroix Spring 2009 Couture 2/4

The second of four planned CL illustrations. This one features a very cute Lindsay Ellingson! I have not decided what colour to do the background, if at all, what do you guys think?

Christian Lacroix Spring 2009 Couture

I have been waiting forever to post this! My wonderful scanning people at World Wide printing were closed over x-mas but they were open today. Drawn with my new Prismacolor pencils, the background took two entire pencils! The wonderful Aussie model Skye Stracke backstage at (my fave-) Christian Lacroix Couture S09.

Zara Bryson in-store mural

On Thursday night I did a live in-store paint at Zara Bryson, a new woman's wear store in Subiaco. Zara was a wonderful client and gave me the freedom to paint whatever I felt would represent the store. One of her wishes was to have a bit of colour included. It was a really fun night, and I very much enjoyed painting in fornt of everybody. It didn't freak me out at all! Pop down if you are in perth: Zara Bryson, Shop 2, 502 Hay Street Subiaco. 08 93818669

Milly s/s 10

My favorite from Milly s/s 10. And black sunglasses again? Am I obsessed?

Kate Moss-Yellow

A little painting I did of Kate a few years ago (the original photo is from 95 I think). Just re-discovered it the other day and seeings as I have been doing a lot of commercial stuff lately, its nice to have little reminders of drawing for the sake of drawing. No more commercial stuff for a while so will be regularly posting again!

Peter Som S/S 10

Loving NY Fashion Week at the moment. This is my favorite outfit from Peter Som.
