DECADE an illustrated diary

Le Locataire

Like clockwork, my Carven cravings are re-awakened by a new season to look forward to. What makes it worse is that Moda Operandi is pre-selling an assortment right now… oy. I love so many things from this Pre-Fall collection, I’ve always wanted a classic Carven skirt suit or a winter coat with a big shearling collar. This might be the time to finally put that to rest.

1. Illustration by me, looking at Carven Pre-Fall '13. 2. All lookbook images by Carven. 3. Carven Paillette Pumps, photo by me. This was my Fall Carven sale pick, along with a couple of button downs. 4. The inspiration, Isabelle Adjani in Polanski's The Tenant.

Pre-Falling

 

 In between the runway seasons – I always love those smaller pre/resort/holiday collections. It seems like designers aren’t as pressured to produce something major, that’s when the best things seem to come about.

1. All Pre-Fall '13 illustrations by me - Stella McCartney, Chloe, The Row. 2. Collage by me - Celine, Thakoon Addition.

New Illustration Work:

Can't show the rest of the project that this drawing comes from just yet - this is an illustration that won't be making the cut for a book I am illustrating that is due out in May 2013. In the meantime, I'm happy to announce my partnership with Walter Schupfer Management. I joined the agency at the end of August and the past few months have been very productive. It feels great to represented by WSM and I'm looking forward to what's in store working with my lovely agent, Delphine - even more so enjoyable because we share a common love for shoes :)

New Illustration Work:

I updated my portfolio with a couple of projects from over the past

few months that just came into print -

a four page illustrated advertorial for Harpers Bazaar and

nineteen pages of my handwriting for a Victoria's Secret catalog.

A lot more to come, so far for September I've already completed over 60  illustrations

for clients and I've been working on a series of large canvas paintings on my own time.

October is also looking good with a my first book illustration project! 

Looking forward to sharing more, soon.
