Focus on the illustrator Alexis Marcou with talent who master the various tools to create stunning illustrations. Between sketches and photo editing, it manages to immerse ourselves in his works. Obsessed with fine and contemporary art and with minimal use of colours and aiming to give more than one meaning to and through his works. Alexis Marcou prefers to avoid repetition of the same techniques and tries to upgrade his methods each time he is on to a new project.
Mandy Tsung's surreal portraits embody the vulnerability, strength, love, and sexuality that are inherent within human beings. Her work is about capturing the complexity of emotion, and is greatly inspired by editorial fashion photography as well as nature. She draws from her multicultural heritage to blend Ukiyo-e aesthetics with vibrant, pop-culture inspired female characters to create work that is both captivating in its beauty and thought provoking.
Alexey Titarenko received his Master of Fine Arts degree from the Department of Cinematic and Photographic Art at Leningrad's Institute of Culture in 1983. He began taking photographs at the beginning of the 1970s, and in 1978 became a member of the well-known Leningrad photographic club Zerkalo, where he had his first solo exhibition (1978).
Since this was creative activity that had no connection with the official Soviet propaganda, the opportunity to declare himself publicly as an artist came only at the peak of Perestroika in 1989 with his "Nomenclature of Signs" exhibition and the creation of Ligovka 99, a photographers' exhibition space that was independent of the Communist ideology
I recently just had a new tattoo done, adding to my ever increasing collection. If you haven't got any tattoo you probably won't understand this when I say they are ever so addictive. Not sure whether its the thrill or the fact I simply might just enjoy pain???? At the moment I've got 4 and soon on the 3rd October I'll have another amazing one to add to the collection. To go with my rockabilly style and my love with retro I got a pair of cherries tattooed on my wrist, they are gorgeous and surprisingly it didn't hurt when I got my wrist tattooed. My boyfriend also got tattooed at the same time (how romantic)! Unfortunately for him he got his neck tattooed and that did hurt :)
I'm so excited for Autumn & Winter there are my favourite seasons, for me it's all about being stylish and cosy at the same time. I have no intentions of wearing trousers as I literally only own one pair of jeans and some chinos, but about 50(maybe more) dresses! This autumn is all going to be about dresses, wooly tights, knee length socks and brogues, so excited! Everyone looks so cute all wrapped up in so many layers, I've sourced out some images which have given me inspiration for autumn/winter. Enjoy! Hope I've inspired you :)
