art, inspired by fashion

this is my version of one of the photos from Jourdan Dunn's editorial from, i-D September 2008, which she was on the cover of. the title of the editorial is "the witching hour". the shot from the magazine:
Photobucket
the painting
Photobucket
oil on 11x14 canvas panel.

I'm still working on another painting based on a shot from aline weber's editorial, but it is much more abstract as to say the influence is looser, the painting is not a copy of the photo. that entire issue was filled with amazing pictures, if I could I would sit for days painting them all.

It's so lovely! The eyes are amazingly on point.

Oil is so hard to work with, so major kudos on that.

Oh and I totally just ranted to your comment since I was making a ranty post at the same time about certain shows. haha

Thank you! it means a lot, I spent what adds up to a couple of days working on the eyes, then I gave up a bit on the rest.

I just saw it and replied, what can I say I'm tots psychic haha
