Inspiration

Everyday I wake up there's something else I want to do with my life. There's another direction I envision myself going in. There's another skill, another craft, another dream, another admiration, another chance, another oppurtunity. Today, it happened to be cutting hair. As I was getting my hair cut, I just kept thinking... I can do this, I can perfect this craft. So i've decided either im gonna legit go to barber school or grab a pair of clippers and start experimenting... on someone else' head of course [lol] its just that i feel like i have such an eye not solely for hair but just the complete look. when im styling someone, i can immediately began to draw these images and illustrations in my head of how id want their hair to look. i want to be to these fresh canvas' (heads of hair) with a set of scissors and clippers, as what charlie le mindu is to wigs. this photo below is a snap from christopher shannon's aw 2010 lookbook. it was one image that clearly stood out in my mind of the type of hair artist im going to be. very eclectic, fresh, innovative designs. im going to bring assymetrical, nonsensible, extroverted designs/styles/characteristics with hair.



no im not aspiring to be a barber. i dont have one path to choose in life, i want it all. for me committing to one sole straight forward path would be like having seven arms and using them all to hold the steering wheel... it just doesnt make sense. i wake up to new ideas, new ambitions, constant constant surprises..

Artist Spotlight: Marcus Sucram & Skltn Magazine

let me just start off by saying that i dont really think Marcus realizes how much of an inspiration he is to me. it doesn't stop at his style, it's his lust, eye, passion, and follow through for photography, fashion, art, word, and design as a whole are concerned. his future is bright, and i'm always just glued to my screen waiting to see what he's going to do next. many of the artists that usually strike up an infatuation though are those that inspire others to produce a piece just off of their work, or their look or craft. i've seen a like a wad of illustrations done of Marcus and just the fact that someone can be so inspired to create a piece of art based on you and your work is inspiring in itself.

  

so let me stop rambling about my muse and.. and get talk about my muse's work [lol]:

Skltn [ Ske • le • ton ] Magazine is marcus' style / art publication. He just recently released his second issue and im just so damn proud of him. I've read it a few times and every time im praising the design, the editorials, the interviews, the photography. it really is a piece of art and as an artist i just notice and respect how much time and creativity he put into it. the magazine is a focused effort towards art, design, fashion // style, artist' / designer support, and more. here's a few screen caps of the mag below:

A Thierry

It's not just the line, it's not just the product. The prosecution of the product (the show) is what always sticks out in mind. Thierry Mugler and Gareth Pugh have some of the greatest shows / film to me.
