All I want for Christmas is „The Beautiful“

Looking through the newest Issue of Elle- Germany I found an article about „The Beautiful“, an amazing book with illustrations for fashion and style, edited by Anneke Krull.

Illustration is one of today’s fastest growing creative disciplines. Its versatility has made it a key visual element in fashion, lifestyle, editorial design, and advertising. Illustrations depict and enrich content in magazines and other publications. They help advertisers to address target audiences more precisely. Illustration appears more and more frequently in fashion and packaging design, and the combination of illustration and photography has resulted in a new, more complex visual language. The Beautiful presents the work of 100 of today’s trendiest and most promising illustrators in the areas of fashion, lifestyle, editorial design, and commercial illustration.

Mitchell Feinberg Photography

 

When the master of still – life – photography starts to work, he makes ordinary products look like art. His extraordinary compositions mostly include fashion – accessories and make – up.  I am also very overwhelmed by his food – photography, which is amazing and makes food look so brilliant like I’ve never seen before.

The Selby – Jeanne Lanvin’s private library

„Todd Selby is a portrait, interiors, and fashion photographer and illustrator. His project The Selby offers an insider’s view of creative individuals in their personal spaces with an artist’s eye for detail. The Selby began in June 2008 as a website, http://www.theselby.com, where Todd posted photo shoots he did of his friends in their homes. Requests quickly began coming in daily from viewers all over the world who wanted their homes to be featured on the site. The Selby’s website became so popular—with up to 55,000 unique visitors daily—that within months, top companies from around the world began asking to collaborate.“ (www.theselby.com)

This spread reminds me of a trip to Mt. Hood with my whole family 5 years ago. It was amazing and when I see these photographs I can literally smell that typical scent of the woods…

„The Blogger Portrait Series is pretty self explanatory.
When I first started my blog, I began exploring other blogger sites.
There were so many blogs that have inspired me.
I then decided that I wanted to give back to those who have inspired me
by
drawing a picture of the blogger from their site.
I’m constantly looking through blogs and i really love to draw different people.
I hope you enjoy the series.“
