Tribute

Paying Respects Lee Alexander McQueen

Well I thought I would start with a post Paying Respects to Lee Alexander McQueen. I had packed a print of this painting tribute to McQueen. first day we were in New York, my Brother and i went and got the print framed. Then two mornings later David & I met up with Ryan & Alice, and walked to the McQueen Store. We arrived to a touching seen of roses, drawings, and letters laid across the store front window, with people standing sobered in front of the store. We stood silently there for a few minutes, Alice had tears in her eyes. I walked up and leaned the framed portrait at the base of the window. Then we silently walked away. Later the next day someone twitpic-ed me a picture of the store front, and to my amazement the portrait got put in the window display of the store. It was really the most humbling experience ever. P.s. Thank you so much to Sketchbook Magazine & also the Fashion Spot for the Interview :)
