Double Take

March 11, 2014 by igetakickoutofyou

Captured in such intricate detail, you could be forgiven for thinking Michael Carson was a photographer not a painter! “I paint people because I have always had a serious addiction to watching people. I try to get that feel in my paintings. As if I am just watching people doing everyday things in my work. I love the subtle ways that a single brush stroke can create such subtleties in facial expression. I spend most of my time on the face and […]

Rimer Nefrati

The Starlight Circus

January 7, 2014 by igetakickoutofyou

Stepping into the world of Rimel Neffati is like watching everything through a cloud of charcoal and starlight. The images could almost be illustrations in their surreality. But how magical are they – as if unearthed from some fantasy circus? Definitely one to explore further… Happy New Year!

Fashion’s Favourite Pen Pal

December 10, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

I was reminded today that posts have been a little sparse of late. So I thought it was about time I showed you what I’ve been up to the last three months. One of the assignments at LCF was to compose a blog where all our written pieces could sit – an umbrella, one could say, with a central theme. Not an easy task, when your interviewing whoever you can get hold of, and just hoping that you might come […]

Sara Singh, H&M, Fashion Illustration

Illustration Inspiration

November 5, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

I’m currently writing a feature on why fashion illustration is making a comeback in the industry and I have been digging and digging for all kinds of info. In fact, so much so, that my kitchen table is now littered with clippings, print outs, magazines and books. I don’t think I’m in the domestic good books right now! Anyway, I came across this great little video by H&M about illustrator Sara Singh and it’s pure inspiration for anyone wanting to […]

London Takes On The Tux

September 17, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

I’ve recently been writing a piece on the power of the Tux and funnily enough it seems to have translated straight to London Fashion Week. Take a look at these babies, hot off the catwalk! Tom Ford Paul Smith Sea Christopher Kane Paul Smith If you can’t wait until next summer there are some tempting Tux’s out there. I will reveal all in due course….watch this space…..
