Lana Del Rey

Given that most of the time while doing work, I'm listening to music, I decided to do a little drawing devoted to just that.  Lately, I've been on a Lana Del Ray kick... I might do more of her, but for now, here's a simple fashion inspired portrait.

For prints, please inquire!

Can't Resist Those Red Heads!

A product of some free time.  She kind of reminds me of Misty (Kasumi) from Pokemon. What do you think?

Dizis (Disorder Dolls)

Mixed Media Reliefs

These are the Dizis (AkA Disorder Dolls).  A bit of a darker subject, these mix doll heads represent different learning or psychological disabilities.  Listed down as Schizophrenia, Language Processing Disorder, ADHD, and the parent product (how children are contained from properly expressing themselves) respectively. The intention was to showcase in almost a beautiful way how these "disorders" can actually be gifts.  Ultimately, they make you special and different.  Then again what is normal?

Dara Puspita

Reintroducing the Dara Puspita! They were an Indonesian Sixties AGOGO group.  Very controversial for a then soviet nation.  But against all odds, their music rocked and continues to!  Be sure to look them up online- its very reminiscent of the Beach Boys, but with a female garage twist.

Eurydice In The Red

Eurydice from the old Greek Myth, "Orpheus."  This was a bit of a recreation of the character.  Being a wood nymph, I wanted to put her in a natural environment.  This environment consists of Japanese red maple, which in this case is symbolic of blood.  Blood is representative of both life and death- Something Eurydice is on the bridge between as well. 

The Great Gatsby • Daisy

 

I am so excited for the new Great Gatsby movie, coming out in May 2013.  I like the idea of Daisy being a blonde, so I decided to do a quick illustration of her on my down time.  Hope Carey does a great job!  We all know Leonardo will be fabulous...
