Lydia Hearst on the Cover of Vogue
August 24, 2009
Hey Friends, how are you all doing?
How was your weekend?
This week is going to be busy;
i'm getting ready for an art show in a few weeks.
I'm pretty excited for it.
Today, i ended up painting this amazing Vogue cover of model Lydia Hearst.
I really like how it turned out.
The whole mood and tone was exactly what i was picturing.
i hope you like it! ;)
p.s. New photo up on my image diary of me as a kid. click here to see it.
P.s.s. Looks like i'm going to NY Fashion Week with my brother David who contributes to The Dream Walking Society. So far, looks like i will be going to Donna Karan and Marc Jacobs shows, so be expecting some fashion week drawings!
