A Mask Can Be Our Most Potent Weapon In this Fight Against a Venomous Virus. Make No Mistake About It, We Are In a War! The fight of our lives. There is no news clips that will makes this all quit. This is ain’t no faux-show. This is Real Life. Masks Save Lives but Leave a Deep Mark in the Heart. They are a prophetic gesture of good will. They remind us of what we have lost and what we long to save. Our strengths and our weakness.

Woman Walking This World Alone...
Sara Blomqvist captures the je ne sais quoi of the city in ‘Paris Chic’ by Sebastian Sabal-Bruce for Vogue Germany, September 2019. Suits send a message of strength, with squared shoulders and straight lines. This is a brand of femininity often misunderstood. Christiane Arp uses the thematic gestures that often typify men’s garment wares, but here are made for a woman’s touch.

Street Scene Seen in Hunger Magazine
Marco Réa captures a unique blend of beauty/street in ‘Mask‘ by Chris Milo for Hunger Magazine. He applies his scattered artwork on copied photographs. Making the end result appear as if some of the paint is splattered over Nana Abramova’s fine face, while the rest is met with a pane of glass. These captures are compelling. Just when you think you know what it is you are gazing at, you find yourself questioning the very nature of reality.

Dreams Defined by Ethereal Designs "Colour Overload"
Kris Grikaite becomes a kaleidoscope of couture in ‘Colour Overload’ by Sølve Sundsbø for Vogue China, 01/19. The art of avant-garde enticement lies in it’s ability to surprise. To evoke thoughts not common or shapes never seen. It thrives to give life to a flat image, while rising to meet the height. Fabric makes it’s way around the body, enhancing every curve and inspiring every concept.

The Lines of Lunacy All But Unleashed
Unto this house we will a home… living far inside the palindrome… from back to front it is the same… hiding inside the sights of plain… ore’ the pathway of beauty abounds… as water rushes in solemn surround… what was lost in truth we found… as we make our way to higher ground… faded in glory we feed on the light… hungry we hang on to witness the sight… bending in borrowed time we yield… ourselves to a state of reverent appeal….

Artful Expression of the Path of Black
Helen Almeida captures the essence of expression. Not controlling that which comes out, rather, allowing it to flow. Don’t let anyone tell you differently. To uncover those deeply hidden gems, one must be willing to go down the path of black. Sometimes difficult, sometimes even grotesque. Noon promised us it would be an easy process, only that our prospects would open.
When Our Insides Close Down, Darkness Prevails.

Open Your Mind And Find Spirit to Fly
Assa ignites a sense of serenity as we feel our spirits rise by Harley Weir for Vogue Italia, January 2018. We have entered a period of our existence that doesn’t demand alot of background noise. We don’t need to distract or overwhelm, we need only to honor our inner fire. The Female Spirit is Here to Say, We’ve Taken Our Place and We Aren’t Going Away. Here we witness something that may seem subtle, or worse, not loud enough to get the attention required to deem it successful.

Poetic Reflection on Storm Devastation
Reflecting on the recent devastation in Florida and Texas, I was touched by Collage/Clothing Artist, Tashi Fay. These poetic pieces spoke to me in a very unique way. A creative take on what it would feel like to be wearing everything you owned. Explore her conceptual influences at King Kong Magazine.
I Wanna’ Go Home
A sadden show has come to bare
upon the shores of life’s despair
it’s here on this fertile ground divine
where laughter has seized in record time
broken windows… broken doors…
broken hearts… came to flood the shores
as the storm set down a bold retort
form and fury was set to thwart
we won’t take this burden sitting down
we’ll banned about from town to town
I’ll call to the four winds that blow
in all directions that spirits flow
to the ancient goddesses we pray in kind
that what was lost ~ our hearts will find
memories are made from the touch of a hand
from feeling the dirt that comes from the land
these winds they may roar another day…
but, they’ll never take my memories away

Eyes Look Behind as She Sees Ahead
Nadja Auermann looks behind as she sees ahead by Arnaud Lajeunie for Numéro Berlin #1, FW ’16. Art unleashes the avant-garde beast, setting in motion a dramatic feast. The depth that we reach is the truth by which we seek. As one of the most talented models of all time, her abilities far outweigh the magazine page. A body in full motion is much like a piece of poetic prose. We can appreciate her long limbs and impressive lines, however, perfection is not the goal.
