My What's Contemporary Issue

December 19, 2011

A collage image from Fashion Artist Danny Roberts for his issue of Whats Contemporary Photo is of Danny Aunt Gina As a kid in 1940

Well, it's finally here!
My What's Contemporary issue is finally up!
I will wait to post the rest of the images tomorrow, but you can check out the full issue up at www.whatscontemporary.com.
All the images in the collages were made out of portions I sampled from different currencies from all over the world, as well as scans I made of old family photos my mom inherited when my grandma died a few years ago. It was a really special experience going through the photo's and incorporating them into my pictures. The image above is of my aunt when she was a little girl and when she was in high school. The Full concept is up on the site. I really hope you like it! Let me know what you think :)

Hey Friends, how was your weekend?
Ours was great. We decorated for Christmas with friends today.
I still can't believe Christmas is only a week away.

I thought i would post the cover i did for Orange County based Riviera Magazine.
It was fun to do something with a magazine in my home town.

Also, tomorrow my issue of What's Contemporary comes out!
I'm really, really, really, really excited for you all to see it.
It's a lot different than my usual, and it's a really personal magazine issue.
So, can't wait to share that with you tomorrow.

Artist Danny Roberts Whats Contemporary designer Fashion Collection red Velvet Dress
Hey Friends.
Thanks for tuning in yesterday! It's starting to come around, huh? Well, we just picked up our Christmas tree tonight and made some hot chocolate! I am starting to get really excited for Christmas. The drawing today is an outfit design I did for my "What's Contemporary" Collection. I really like how it turned out. It has kind of an old Vogue feel to it, don't you think?

Valentino F/W 11.12 Ad Campaign
Models: Caroline Brasch Nielsen & Monika "Jac" Jagaciak
Photographer: David Sims
Stylist: Karl Templer

Hey friends, how was your weekend?
Mine was good. Had another Fringe weekend.
Also, worked a little on a project that will be released in a week or so.
I'm so excited for you to see it. It is seriously unlike anything i have ever done before.
I think the project is released next Monday. :)

The painting today is of a Valentino ad i saw in Vogue.
It's kinda funny how i ended up seeing the ad.
My mom bought a issue of Vogue because my friend Julia Frakes was in it,
and when i was looking through the magazine, this Valentino ad really stood out to me as something that would be fun to paint.
What do you think?

Also, i will be doing another live painting on Ustream tomorrow, Monday, December 12, at 12:30pm PST.
I will be adding another layer to the under painting.
Should be painting for 3 to 4 hours. Hope to see you then ;)

Inspiration friday picture of a Close up of an old 1937 pink and tan map of paris
Inspiration friday painting is by 1700-1800 artist Pierre Joseph Redoute of pink roses with black backgroundThis Inspiration friday painting is a girl model leaning forward on to her hand and looking into the camera with two pony tails and a knit sweater with a flower wallpaper.This photo is of Firry orange grass in forest with white trees and black knots on the trees in Aspen Colorado, for Inspiration friday

Images by Pierre Joseph Redoute. The rest of the images i don't know who did them but if you do i would love to know! :)

Hey Friends!
Happy inspiration Friday! We finally made it through another week! ... A freezing week, i might add. This week's inspiration Friday vibe is a sort of Romantic journey, where time seems to stand still as you're walking in and out of universes playing hide and seek! I hope it inspires you today ;)

On a different note, I decided to continue painting the 4' by 3' oil painting i'm working on all on Ustream. So i will try to each week paint the different layers for you. But i saw a lot of you had trouble because of the time difference watching it. Is there a good time for me to do the next one? I'm thinking of doing it this coming up Monday (December 12), at either 10am or 2pm PST and i would paint for 3 or 4 hours.
