Japanese photographer Daisuke Yokota creates inky, ethereal images portraying landscapes and nudes. Shooting digitally, Yokota prints and retakes his initial shots using medium-format film. He then continues to print the results several times, distorting the images with heat and light. The photographer cites Aphex Twin as an inspiration, commenting “there’s a lot of experimentation with […]
Have you ever woken up one day, and wondered where all the sun, warmth and possible of your childhood have gone? While you’re sipping your morning coffee, full of melancholy and perhaps dejection, you are pondering about our society, seemingly driven by nihilism, isolation and a growing pleasure in destruction. And you’re wondering: how did it happen? How did you lose the innocence, the dreams and the magic you could swear were true when you were a child? You’re asking yourself how all adults could have lost sight of the beauty and positive strength inside of them, and now either turning their back on nature, or, even worst, trying to destroy it, in order to fuel their everlasting anger against their own void. You’re sad, and you’re bitter too. But, there is still a dab

My expression originates and transforms in a melancholy avant-garde universe. I evolve clothes based on a conceptual and sculptural approach to the process through experiments with forms and layers to create unconventional silhouettes.

I love to wear skirts! They are so versatile. You can mix and match them with blouses, sweaters, or pair them with jackets. They can be worn with tights and flats or tights and boots. You can change the look by simply changing your shoes from flats to stilettos. Because I love skirts, I am always on the look out for an interesting design and I've found a few that I thought you might like too! I wish I could see a complete front view of this skirt. But regardless, I really like the asymmetrical hem and the side seam welt pocket. A wrap skirt is always lovely. I love how they played with the pattern on this skirt. I'm sure you've seen this skirt on Pinterest. It's a very popular pin. But it derserves to be looked at again as it is such a lovely and dramatic design. Okay, we need Bunny of La Sewista for this one, especially since she is a smocking guru. I REALLY want to know how to do this!!! I don't care for the little buttons, but I do love the technique. Simple, yet so graceful. Here's another interesting wrap. I think this is so pretty. Look closely and you'll see that inside the center of the drape is a zipper. Sadly the zipper looks a bit off, but it's a great idea nonetheless. Since this skirt is in white, it's a little difficult to see, but if you look closely, you'll see that it has very interesting lines. What a lovely take on a pleated skirt. A cute take on a kilt design. This skirt makes me want to throw my sandals on and head for Bermuda!!! It just screams summer. I love how the scalloped edge was taken around the hem and then up the center back to accent the vent opening. Such a comfortable looking skirt. From Eileen Fisher. I believe that Marcy Tilton has a Vogue pattern that is quite similar. I love everything about this skirt. Take a striped fabric and add godets. Lovely. Now for a little comic relief ;) I'll say this, it's interesting!!! I have some fabulous surprises up my sleeve for you this week, so please be sure to check back. Also, the voting for the Get Your Motors Running Contest ends tonight so be sure to get your vote in if you haven't done so already. Have a wonderful day and a great week!!!! Rhonda

Simply, London-based artist Polly Nor creates women and demons. Yet, there's much more hidden inside the illustrations, sculptures, and other works. “Her recent body of work features a range of hand drawn, digital illustrations and sculpture work,” a statement says. “Interweaving themes of identity, female sexuality and emotional turmoil throughout her work, Nor is inspired by her own female experience of life in the internet-age. Her Illustrations often tell stories of anxiety, self doubt, and the struggle for self-love.”
When children play and learn in imaginative environments, the impact can be huge.

French 3D artist Jean-Michel Bihorel has been rendering films for the past 6 years, while also keeping up with personal projects that utilize the same professional tools. In his latest works, he has produced two digital sculptures of the female form composed of a sample of dry flowers. In the first work the body is completely shaped from the floral sample, the woman shown in different poses that demonstrate her whole form. The second rendered figure is focused on just the torso, and has a cracking marble skin that reveals flowers inside. More
