Newcomer Portrait Series
Antonina IMG Models
Hey Friends!
How are you? I’m happy to say that David and I finished the First Draft of our book, which means we are a few months away for starting to submit it to Publishers. We are really excited for you all to read it. Well, the post today is part of my Newcomer Portrait Series, and the portrait is of Antonina of IMG. Antonina first caught my eye a few months ago, when i saw a picture of her on tumblr. I thought she would be a great addition to the series. She has such a great and unique look. She has a Classic Beautiful look. When i was working on the portrait, i couldn’t decide which version of the portrait i liked better, the color or black and white, so i thought i would post both. I also posted some of my favorite pictures of Antonina below. I hope you like the portrait. :)

Anna Lund Interview
Wow, i’m beyond tired. The concert yesterday was amazing and seeing Sean & my friend Ryan was really awesome, but we didn’t get home till 3am. We only got 3 – 4 hours of sleep. Well you know, a few weeks ago i was saying we wanted to do interviews as part of our Newcomer Portrait Series. I’m happy to say, we got our first interview in the series. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know IMG model Anna L. over the last few weeks. We really think she has a great career ahead of her. She’s from Denmark, but is currently visiting New York. For this picture, I used mainly color pencil, watercolor, and pen on illustration board. I really like how it turned out. I was trying to capture her fun youthful spirit. I really hope you like it and hope you enjoy the interview
;)

I'm a very positive person, so I'm actually almost always happy, but extra happy if someone compliments me :)
12. Favorite thing about New York City?
All the people! I'm very social and love to talk to everybody (especially cute boys), so I think the coolest is all the people I met at work and randomly met on the street.
13. Celebrity Crush?
I don't think celebrity boys are cute. I like boys who have some edge and a great body, and since I'm pretty tall, then also tall boys.
