fashion trends for summer 2012

every couple of months, the magazine i work for "GO STYLE" Magazine - releases a special fashion issue - that includes a big trend dictionary - filled with pictures, information and loads of good stuff. also included in this festival of visuals are some of my illustrations. i love creating these illustrations for the upcoming trends! it is such a satisfaction for me to illustrate all the colors, shapes and styles of the upcoming season.
so here they are! enjoy!!!!

something takes hold of me

whenever i'm on the phone with a friend, i always get an urge to draw something. my subconscious takes over my hand and starts doodling away in a manner that i don't even understand. while im deeply engaged in a conversation with my girlfriend about boys and stuff- without even noticing - i had just created an illustration of a girl wearing a striped blouse and has cute little knickers. and i ask myself- ok where did that just come from?

wish you were here

part 2 of my miss you summer story:
i know things are going crazy with the weather over in Europe right now. i mean, Jesus- its cold there! how do ppl manage? as i ponder on this thought i am currently staring outside my office window at a sunny sky, 20 degrees Celsius weather over here in Tel Aviv. i hope i didnt just piss someone off. so here are some fur coats- to keep you warm while i run down to the kiosk with my flip flops. :) ciao

miss you, summer

in the dead of winter- where all you wanna do is cuddle up with your loved one in bed ( in my case thats my dog, since BF and i broke up recently - im ok by the way, thanks). but sometimes one has to leave the cozy home - and in order to do that - one needs a warm outfit usually consisting of a good coat- preferably - a chic one. so this is a post dedicated to coats- big, small, tight, loose and everything inbetween.

An illustrated Catalog

I was asked to create an illustrated catalog for the designer Aviva Zilberman. we thought of a different way to feature her collection in a more creative way than just doing a fashion shoot. i think these illustrations reflect the cool and quiet essence of her collection.

My friend Yael

My friend Yael Badash is an amazing singer just now starting to tour and perform her music. I am working on an album cover for her... she is so beautiful. it is such a challenge...

when she discovered Instagram

ever since i've discovered Instagram- i have become an obsessed person, looking everywhere i can to find a good excuse for a click. one day i noticed that i dont have to look far for insparation. i pointed the cam at an illustration that just layed on my desk and filtered it on istagram. loved, loved loved the outcome. i think its a nice combo. dont you?

miss you Amy!
