Rachel Antonoff Spring 2011 FFF
Well, my friends, My brother & I worked on writing a story book… I’m really excited about it… Like so excited that I can barely concentrate on anything other than the story. The painting today is one i did for Sundance Channel’s Full Frontal Fashion. It’s of Amanda Jules from a photo I took at Rachel Antonoff Spring 2011, which is one of my favorite collections of this last season. The fabric print was a lot of work, but like how it turned out. I really hope you like it :) P.s.s. My bro set up this Facebook page. So Igor + André is now on Facebook if you want to “Like” us! Haha Just Click Here!
