I am an Illustration graduate who is inspired by alternative fashions, burlesque and East Asian cinema and music. I use this account to show some of my work and some of the things I love and am inspired by. Some of my favourite celebrities that I like to draw are Dita Von Teese, Lady Gaga and K-pop group 2NE1. I use drawing inks and water colour paints to make my images.

Thank you for all the recent support, I’ve noticed especially a lot of support for my Gaga artwork. Thank you little monsters!
This is an old drawing, It was done last year, but I never posted it online. Here it is, dug up from my files and released!
Sorry there’s not much new artwork recently. I am up to my neck in University coursework. I hope to have some time to do more Gaga and 2NE1 artwork in the next month or so. I also have the work for ‘Playful Promises’ which will be revealed as soon as the project is completed with the client. :)
‘Playful Promises’ First teaser
((Also posted to my BLOG))
As mentioned in my last post I am working on some images for Playful Promises and this is just a tiny bit of the sketching I’ve been doing over the last couple of days.
Of course, not all this ‘teaser’ artwork is not necesarily final and might end up being changed, edited or scrapped during the process with the client. Once the Project is completed I can show the full artwork, but until then, I’ll only be providing teasers like this. More to come soon!
((Check out Playful Promises: Website and Shop, Blog, tumblr, twitter and facebook They are having a sample sale this weekend, which happily I shall be attending!))
CONTEST CLOSED 19TH JULY 2011. Please look out for the next one! :D

A drawing from my ‘Japanese Street Fashion’ series
(I am currently selling high quality fine art prints of this street fashion series on my Blog )
‘This is my prayer, I swear, I’m as free as my hair’
((I know the order of some of these styles might be incorrect and I’ve missed out some hairstyles as well, so please don’t complain about it, I can always add to it later!))
In fact, the best thing about this image is I can just keep adding and adding to it as her hair continues to change or I remember ones I’ve missed. :)

Here is my entry for V Magazine’s ‘Drawn this way 3’ contest. It’s Lady Gaga from her press conference in Taipei earlier this month. (sorry about the watermark on this version. I don’t want it posted without credit)
I think I got my entry in on time. I got a weird email back saying the winners will be announced on July 7th, and yet this contest started around July 15th… so I am a little confused!) anyway! lets hope it makes it into the contest and I am crossing my fingers I win, but I will be happy enough knowing Gaga will possibly see my art.
CL from 2NE1 - I am the Best.

For an exhibition in London I made some ink paintings inspired by Japanese Street Fashion in Harajuku. Many of the images were inspired by the ‘Street Snaps’ from the Japanese fashion magazine KERA. The image above is just one of these. There are more to come!
Sorry about the text over the image but I am sick of people taking my images and blogging them all over tumbr without any credit.
