Brodery - Illustration 2.0



Sketches

Digitalized illustration, ready for embroidering.
Embroidering the fabric.

For my minor Digital Crafts this year I'm inspired by wood carved art pieces. I made a baroque inspired print that I digitalized and eventually abraded on fabric. This embroidery work will be sown into a cute cape for myself.


Can't wait to wear my own illustrated embroided cape!

Twins


Sketch

Twins is inspired by an old vintage photo. In particular, the forced strict faces that were probably influenced by the exploding flash powder of the old camera, was my inspiration for this drawing.  
The fashion magazines from nowadays show models with the same facial expression. I added the old and new together in this illustration.

 More photo's comming soon!

Twins is geïnspireerd op een oude vintage foto. Met name de geforceerde strenge blikken, die wellicht beïnvloed waren door het ontploffende flitspoeder van de oude camera, waren voor mij de inspiratie voor deze creatie. De modebladen van nu laten vrouwen zien met dezelfde blik. Zo voegde ik het oude met nieuwe samen in een illustratie.

Meer foto's volgen snel!

Animal Tested Beauty

 









After looking through my pile of fashion magazines i saw the mass of digital manipulates beauty adds. When I saw the movie Cleopatra I became to think that people that wear animal tested beauty product are in a way wearing the soles of the animals that suffered or maybe died for their beauty. Is this wrong or is it just life and death and are these tests impossible to produce safe products? Are we not pretty enough without make up?
