ITS DONE!! For http://unumag.com/

Check it out! I was in the first issue and i hope to be in the second!

The theme was what you liked in winter as a kid and still do?

ME? I like that time when you were playing out with your friends and then your cold and tired so u come back, tired but happy, drinking something HOT!! Outside, being cold but crystal-like and beautiful and inside, tinting with the blue fron the outside but warm and full of friends still laughing. You know right?

Anyway! This is my friend Pearl: http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v347/192/46/523745646/n523745646_4440064_155.jpg <<< Isnt she cute? I had to use THIS a ref. She has curly hair though.

and then theres Me.




If you guys caree....

I HEART the gothic/renaissance. My favorite artists of the time so far that i've paid attention to is....

Jan Van Eyck
Fra Bartolommeo
Durer
Paolo Caliari
Giovanni Battista Piazzetta
Tiepolo
Leonardo
and Michelangelo!

Italian art is BEAUTIFUL. German too!! So beautiful! Especially the sculptures! Their STOMACHS were gorgeous!! They looked so SOFT yet they are made outa STONE! Their bodies were absolutely beautiful too! Not skin and bones but CURVY and with SEXY CHUB! DAMNNN!!! SOOO much hotter then today's image of beautiful. ew

ANYWAYY!! They all inspire me alot! (there are artists of today that inspire me too but u knoww) i LOVE their CRISP brushstokes or their bold lighting!!! or the DARKNESS!! and the SMOOTHNESS! They are all so beautiful. I aspire to absorb bits and pieces of their style and add it unto my own! (THE FABRICS WERE BEAUTIFULL!!)

ANYWAY! enjoy! comment! Rate! Fave!

I love how you used streaks of blue in their hair and it came out very natural. =]
Also I agree with you about today's beauty standards = ew.
