miss fashion girl gets a boost

I don't design clothes, I design dreams.
Ralph Lauren

hello folks...


I felt like having fun last night with collage.
Don't panic yet - she kinda looks like Rocky here.

Snippets of different parts of the face from different photos.
The mouth is actually the mouth of a baby,
just cause i'm guessing some of these fashion queens
must pout now and then.

No doubt from lack of food... ;-)


A bit of color in the background to shape the face...

Yeah, i could have simply cut the paper,
but there's not much thinking going on at the early stages.


Color in the eyes... and yes, i thought she looked better
with a flower on her head rather than hair. 

I'd make a fine fashion designer... ;-)


a few little extra doodles... and dots. ;-)


more detail...
notice the turtle neck sweater... it's wool. ;-)


she looks pretty sad, but most of them usually do...
(again, lack of food)

Give me a week with nothing but lemon juice and crackers,
and i'd be about ready to kill someone.

i need croissants and coffee
thank you very much...




I can't take much credit for something like this, since it's mostly collage.
But the purpose was to relax and have fun - and that i did.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!
it's Friiiiiiday!!

  3. Take credit! It looks wonderful and far more interesting than just a photo of a Photoshopped fashion model.

  9. She's so cute, the flower hair, the swirly touches, the 'pins' all around her hair - it all adds up to being more than the sum of its parts. Great fun to look at as well.

  13. Having fun is what it is all about in my book... and you did well not to give her horns and buck teeth... I always revert back to defacing pics in something like this... childish but fun... the people at the chinese takeaway are quite okay with me and even ask to see what i have done to some poor celebrity from their magazine pile... and they lend me a pen if I have forgotten one... they are enabling me like crazy... maybe have to switch to thai food to break the habit... or maybe take a leaf from your book and treat them a bit nicer...xx

  18. I loved seeing your process with something as fun as this, she looks very cool, a fun idea and something I want to try! A good idea when you are feeling a bit brain fried. :)
