Recent inspiration

These are some of my latest inspirations, I've been circling around the ideas of individuality, color and natural portraits. ( natural as in posture ). 

Three artists

Nigel Barker - fashion photographer, his works have been in People magazine and GQ magazine. He lends his talents to the television show America's Next Top Model, as a photographer and a judge. His models poses and themes are brilliant and creative. He is always unique and has interesting concepts.

         

Emily Sullivan - Probably the most creative and talented metal smith ever discovered. She has her own line of super fabulous and creative jewelry, mostly revolving around  the theme of 'victorian gothic'. I love the uniqueness of each and every piece of hers, youll never find anything close to the raw beauty of her designs. You can find (and order) many of her works at Raveneve.com.

      

Norihiro Yagi - the creator of the anime/manga series Claymore. One of my favorite things in his work is the monsters (yoma). There so unique and original. There are no words to describe them. I also love the way he proportions his faces and bodies, and the realisticness of it. His manga and anime are impressive. In his manga, the shading is so smooth and delicate, like it was drawn in charcoal. His anime lacks a bit, but the colors and movements seem natural.
