Laura Marling: REPRODUCED

The effortlessly beautiful Laura Marling is another of my loves and icons. Here's my illustration of her taken from The Mystery Jets song 'Young Love' which she features in.

And here is the super groovy song itself;

Here's my illustration of LA ROUX. Now I'm not much of a fan of her music, but I do find her face fascinating, with her tomboy, androgynous and simplistic features. Though she dapples with futuristic stylings I quite feel she has a very 60s/70s vibe about her.

I like this remix version of 'In for The Kill' I found on youtube. It's eeriely ethereal and her vocals are more hauntingly.

DAISY CHAINSAW illustration

A huge HUGE love and inspiration to me is the beautifully ethereal Katie Jane Garside. Oh my wow, she is sensational! In style, music and mere presence; she steals my heart and hypotizes me. I adore her in all her music ventures; Daisy Chainsaw, Queen Adreena and Ruby Throat. I'm completely in love with her poetic sensual vulnerability. She is like a child of the earth, a nymph, who has somehow stumbled into fame and television, although amazingly gifted, she doesn't seem to belong there, and is solemnly awaiting to return home to a magical river or wood.


Below is my illustration of Katie, inspired by a photograph of her back in her Daisy Chainsaw days.

To Daisy, with love X

TOPSHOP: HAIR illustration

Hello kats and kittens and general folk. Haven't posted any artwork for a muchos long time so **tar darr** here's one for ya!
Its titled TOPSHOP: HAIR and is by me clare and the bear

Inspired by an image in a Topshop magazine of a girl with her head held down and depicting just her hair, I do adore lank messy hair! There was summat about having her face completely hidden by her hair that captured me. Surprisingly I found it more challenging to draw someone without a face than with one.   

Tarot card Jewellery

My love for all that is magical and spiritual spells over into a collection of books, films, jewellery and ornaments/statues. I stumbled on my tarot cards today which inspired me to collaborate jewellery that resemble tarot cards.
