PENCIL FASHION
Thursday, January 14, 2010 Pencil Fashion is an exploration in art and design, the theme of Fashionable models always fascinated me and it’s being a long time since I wanted to do something along those lines. I would classify it as a contemporary painting although I really hate doing that….I tried to keep female figure somewhat abstract and stylized but not overdue it and maintain pretty close resemblance to the real human proportions and figurative expressions. I also chose to play with a mirrored image on some of the pieces, somehow it just resonates with the fashion show, cat walk when you see models walking toward the audience and then stop, strike a pose for a few seconds, turn around an leave. I think it is one of the most dramatic moments of the show. With my work I was trying to capture this pretentiously graceful but frozen for a moment look. The over all atmosphere or art space(or simpler background) is not as uniquely different then some of my previous work. I still love the organized chaos of painting that I was developing for a while. In case of Pencil Fashion series, I definitely used bolder design inspired colors. I think some are stronger then other (which is always the case…lol), but I’m very happy with results, this series came easy to me and I love when it happens…. Please see more here.
