Art Show at RUIN and more...

The show at Ruin was fun...the art was displayed on a roof top, there was a full moon, and some interesting people. I really need to start bringing a camera so I have pics to post, live and learn.

anyway, there were 5 other artists that were set up, 2 of my favs were kimi takemura, awesome insanely detailled illustrations edward gory inspired with her own japonesque characters...http://kimitakemura.daportfolio.com/

and brien white, who did large oils and acrylics of ganesh and buddah but in a dreamy metallic, these were also really detailled and pretty freakin amazing...www.brienwhite.com

I made a batch of black cuffs...some with leather ruffle, some are kind of modern and deconstructed...and got some great inspiration for future designs as some of the crowd was dressed to impress with elaborate hair-do's and tons of feather headpieces, gotta love that! I'll be posting some of the items I made here on the blog...eventually. I didn't make any new handbags, I kept it easy and affordable, but I am digging the cuffs, and the scarves I have been working on...if you want to see pictures from the event search ladead.com (I think)

Two Headed Deer..."DOE DOE"

I just love this long chain rockin version of maybe a Chanel bag...hehehe what would Coco think?

art show at RUIN

I'll be setting up my stuff at RUIN in LA this Saturday night JUNE 26th! should be fun to hang out at a club and people watch...all is quiet in the studio right now, but I did just aquire a bunch of old leather jackets and bags to hack into pieces...a great big red coat...should be fun since I have done sooo much in black leather, though I do love working with black...and I was on a roll with my "little black cuff" idea of making only cuffs in black, all different styles...everyone needs at least one black cuff...
