snail lady in the bath

i'm not sure who to credit the background image to. it was on tumblr, and as if that didn't make it far enough from the source,
 i saved it months ago without any relevant information. i made the lady purple and then it just seemed perfect that she 
would have purple baths. with her snails. she just dyed her hair. the snail is making ice crystals with its eyes. out of 
bubbles. 

trying to look more worked and less not worked.
interested in feedback.

"it looks like you did it with your eyes closed."
well, sort of true. i had my eyes open for the colours at least.

Snail Lady




Jil Sander S/S 2012






some scribbles while watching the Jil Sander show on youtube. all from stills 
except the 2nd image, which is outfits drawn/scribbled 'live' i.e. without 
pausing the pictures. y'know. for practice.


anyway, they make me really happy. particularly the bigger ones. and the first one. 
i think it reminds me of the 'favourite' from the previous post with the snails coming 
out of the lady's toes. 3d and 2d coming together as happy friends.

new book again. one sided book.



bodily options 
new (slightly old now) book



wanting to wear Miró
it was a fashion illustration, but i've forgotten from which show, *and* i just kept scribbling on it, so there isn't much/any resemblance left. i'd go with 'any'. the original photo probably did have a nose, though.
Good Works poetry/spoken word fundraiser evening. little bits of text are quotes from the speaker. who i didn't write down the name of. should in future. top left: flo, right: raf
moth and ani (also poetry)

jar of self, spilt on the floor
dinner on couches and floor, green drink, cheesecake+blueberries, beautiful people who sing

rocket queen at cherry bar.
this one's a favourite.


ummm, i wasn't and am not sure how to make an umbrella with scales and waterproof fish,
so i drew it instead (for the moment) (see if i still want it later).
do intend on making fluffy cat crop top and stretchy skirt, though.

 that's probably enough content for one post on a day that's this very hot.

what did today look like.

Leon: The Professional (1994)

"what's fashion? i don't know what fashion is. the stuff that i like is crazy and different 
which i think fashion should be. i think fashion should be something that you've never seen before. 
something new and exciting. that's what i think true fashion is." (loosely quoted... like a summary quote. with less extra words.)

Larry Carlson, as mentioned in video above

 aand i tried to draw my reflection. i look a funny sort of dishevelled 
and my fringe is pinned to the sides and there is a nice amount of brown regrowth.
