David Bowie: Fashion Icon, Rock Legend

David Bowie January 8th, 1947- January 10th, 2016 Although I'm writing this several months after his death, I still wanted to bring forward the importance of David Bowie and his contribution to music and fashion.  I do have to admit, I never was a huge  David Bowie fan,but there has been a number of songs and outfits that have inspired me over the years. In his life, Bowie produced 26 albums, did 14 world tours and appeared in 21 films and television shows.

I got my first tattoo done in Cranston, RI at Iron Hand Tattoo by my talented cousin, Andrew Labanaris .  Well, he's really my second cousin, but none of the less he is an incredible artist.  Having a family member work on my tattoo was a true bonding experience and having him do my f

I've been admiring Stephanie Pepper's illustrations for a few years now and wanted to focus this Thursday on her. Not too much is known on her personal status but she is still currently a student at SVA and creates some pretty radical art. I'm not really sure what attracted me to her art originally but I like the subject matter and the way she can exaggerate and make it feel like you know her characters just by seeing one or two pieces that have them in it. I admire her skill and imagination and I hope you can appreciate it as well You can find more of her works here , here and here
