Lanvin Spring 2010 Styling

As usual, the photos suck, but I'm still pretty happy with how this turned out. While I was in Houston, I just spent my idle time doodling away, and this is one of the products. She's based off an editorial featuring Lanvin's Spring 2010 Beauty. (Lots of smokey eyes, whispy updos, and bleached brows)

I really liked the model- as you can see, she had some really sharp, stunning features, and serious attitude. I'm happy with how this turned out, especially with limited art supplies while I was away lol.



I have a couple ideas for finishing this. I like it as a simple black and white illustration, but I think a few subtle colors might be nice, or just a severe black background-- lots of different directions to take it in. That's usually why I choose to color some of my drawings digitally, because I don't want to be tied down to just ONE result.

Little drawing...

Getting caught up on a week's worth of recorded shows and felt like I was wasting time watching tv, so I picked up my sketchpad to make myself feel like I was "doing something" lol. I was inspired by one of the most amazing photos from the Paris fashion shows. This chick had craaazy cool hair. I felt like drawing it. I was more concerned with getting the color of her hair right lol. Attempt number one. The pics are terrible because of the horrible glare but it won't get any better any time soon, so c'est la vie... whatever.
