as much as i love the sketchy behaviour thread...now that we have this section we could have the luxury of single threads also?

^ That's nice...I don't think I've seen that one. The red Yamamoto scares me a little...not sure why . The other one is divine.

For Italian Vogue

^beautiful.
yes, it's scary...that's funny, but i find it very powerful...ususally his pictures have such a quiet zen-like mood and in this one something is lurking behind, maybe it's the dry-blood coulour...

I love this... the simplicity is just so strong

oh thanks for posting these, travolta! i saw them in german vogue, i think, and loved them. the rykiel portrait is brilliant!

strangely enough i never find the kind of things you find at artandcommerce

thanks for posting these!!

welcome guys I love his portraits the best, i think. i think that site is a little strange, because i find new stuff all the time. for instance, i got these images on a yahoo search, and they didn't come up under his name before.

he's one of my faves if not #1

oh my, are these amazing! i love that watercolor renders things so soft, yet so striking at the same time... and his illustrations themselves are so arresting..it really gives the whole body of work a quality of unreality, while still being very much tangible...i can imagine the textures of the fabrics!

thanks for all the images everyone!

she mentioned that they are from Italian Vogue but she didn't say which one.

they're beautiful!

absolute perfection! this guy is a genius. i think the reason i find some of these a bit "scary" is because there is this very "ghostly" feel to it...very ethereal and mysterious
