L.F DOES ART PART 2

Kelly Thompson influenced me A LOT.

Main piece

Exam prep' work!

As promised! My card decided not to malfunction for once. Sorry the images are not perfectly focused I was feeling rather 'meh'. Elly is showing off her work too!! I'm listening to Babyshambles' Fuck Forever. I feel so old haha.

L.F DOES ART

8:30 AM- START OF DAY 2 OF ART EXAM! JUST SORTING OUT THE STUFF I NEED.

THESE ARE THE LEGS I'VE YET TO COMPLETE! THEY ARE MICHELLE'S BTW.

I WAS HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY A FEMALE FASHION ILLUSTRATOR WHICH I WILL ADD A PIC/HER NAME IN MY NEXT POST WHEN I'LL SHOW YOU MY FINISHED PIECE ON FRIDAY! HER WORK HAD THESE 'SWIRLS' WHICH INSPIRED ME AND REMINDS ME OF THE BODY PAINT THEY PAINTED ON A RECENT RODARTE SHOW :)

MESS!

SEMI-FINISHED FACE.

2:30 PM- FINISHED FACE AND LEG... AND THE BEGINNINGS OF THE BODY.

FINISHED LEGS?! MY PEERS SEEM TO LIKE THE LEGS A LOT. MAY ADD BRUSHO INKS LATER TO ADD COLOUR... HMM.

Hey guys! Just quick update from me. This post should be on my art blog but my mum suggested maybe my lovely 7 subscribers (thank-you!!!!) would want to see other interests of mine.

The exam is 3 days long and started on Monday but I forgot to bring my camera to record the start. Anyway here's from day 2 (today)! Time flies by so fast. One minute you start then its break, lunch and home-time! Gahh. I'm sort of on schedule just need to add the arms and finish the body! As you can see I like mixing different mediums. This piece mixes ball-point pen drawings, collages, inks and machine embroidery! The theme is 'passions and obsessions' and my take on it is the fashion-couture world! And if you look closely I've incorporated the photos from my recent make-up looks into it!

Finished piece will be on my next post and lastly:

1. I've ordered 8* OCC lip tars
2. I LOVE LCD SOUNDSYSTEM'S- SOMEONE GREAT!

GAGA

So some of you may or may not know but I do textiles and have done for 4 years now. I don't plan on furthering my career around the fashion industry as a designer. Since as much as I like designing clothes, I don't enjoy making them and to be successful a designer tailoring is a major element you must master. But yeah I still love fashion (even though I don't show this through my personal style) and if you do textiles you will appreciate how clothes are made to another level because seriously you do not know how complicated a garment is to make, unless you've done it!!!

The image above is of Michelle modelling my dress (year 13) inspired by the one and only Lady Gaga. Its not the best photo to see the actual garment but this photo is 'fashiony' and I had to post it (Michelle's wearing a bra so you can't really make out the front fastening detail!).

FASHION RELATED VIDEOS I PARTICULARLY LIKE:

This collection epitomises how the real L.F would want to dress

Useful for a McQueen newbie fan (I'm not going to pretend I know him inside out when I don't) as it shows his "highlights" throughout his career and pin points his signature style

I had previously heard of Mr. McQueen but this was the collection where I actually got to see all of his craftsmanship and design work. The heels......... lush. R.I.P.

KATE MOSS FOR T.S TAKE 2

L.F and M.C (Michelle Cheung) are back again! OK. I am a total perfectionist and I cannot stand looking back at the old shots I did before (do some archiving!). Hot blurred mess. Yuck.

If I say so myself these shots are 1000x better and actually run cohesively now then before. Pressure to do better did make the "bitch" L.F to come a bit but Michelle didn't take it offensively... but if you want something done you got to be (slightly) ruthless right?!

Michelle's skin was quite hard to work with today as it was really dry and flaky but the black and white hides it all... woo. The make-up was just pinky-raspberry stained lips ( I've been loving stains lately) with an intense black smoky eye (all around eyes with lots of eye-liner) and false eyelashes... which I had problems with as I kept sticking Mich's eyelashes stuck together. Practice makes perfect guys!

Overall. Happy? Oui. Oui.

p.s these shots are for media

TAKE TWO WITH MICHELLE CHEUNG

Bags don't belong to us... but our mothers!!

Taking a break, posing still necessary

So here is my Harvey Nichols women's wear interpretation.. take two! Wasn't really pleased with my first time shots but this time I'm really happy and I think they look more "polished" and professional. Michelle fell asleep while I was doing her make-up which was really weird to move a lifeless head!

The make-up was a smokey eye with 'bleached' eye brows as seen on Lara Stone for example!

Updated Topshop ones will be taken on Wednesday!
