My NEW digital fashion portraits in Paris!
Commissioned by Scarlett Entertainment for LEXUS. This was a TOP SECRET night time event- with an undisclosed location. The guests arrived by coach at Luc Besson's- Cité du Cinéma in Saint Denis, on the outskirts of Paris. This was where The Fifth Element was filmed, amongst others.My iPad Pro was linked to a screen where I drew portraits of the guests until early hours of the morning. Met some lovely guests and other 'performers' including violinists, liquid nitrogen ice cream makers and 'Tron' dancers! It was a huge corporate event with European-wide guests.
'LA's Hottest Ticket'- Variety Magazine & Women in Film and Television's celebration @ Gracias Madre
Painting @40 guests as speedily as possible last friday night in LA was my most pressured job to date! Working with LA illustrator Sunny Gu, who was also drawing like crazy. Our mission from Rue La La, sponsors of the event was to "paint each guests in 2 minutes"- we did assure the client that was impossible but we would do our best!!!
It was packed with guests from U.S tv shows such as Ariel Winter (Modern Family) Jamie King (Sin City) Laverne Cox (Orange is the New Black), and many many others!

Mac Art of The Lip Selfridges
Private Tuition
Had an interesting day in London giving private tuition to Sara Japanwalla- an experienced fashion illustrator from Dubai who wanted to fine tune her techniques. She progressed immensely from the morning and was a very quick learner- the perfect student! Sara went away with a shopping list of art equipment with tools to improve her trade.
"Art of the Lip"
Mac Cosmetics
"Art of The Lip" event
Westfield, Stratford
Customers received beautifully painted lips from Mac's makeup artists, then were invited to sit for their very own fashion portrait! The A5 artworks were taken home in a beautiful Mac folder.
I did about 30 portraits per day and met some lovely people, it was especially lovely to meet 3 young doctors, on their way home from night shift, to sleep a few hours before getting back to work! The Mac staff were great to work with, I even had my own face done by Kom- a fantastic make up artist.
