This’s  my second illustration inspired by Jessica M. Clayton in wich I called … Mirror of the soul… I really don’t  know why but at the time that I looked her in this pose I imagined she was looking herself  in a mirror… and  the rest of the story came so naturaly… like  the field of flowers and the butterflies …the  mirror is the focal point of the  idea  so I thought it needed to be imponent!

“The aspiration of the soul to lose itself in the infinite can not find satisfaction in the simple spectacle that you can cover with a view…”

I made this illustration for a friend…the makeup artist Vanessa de Brito. I was totally inspired by the “Flapper look – aka the anti-corset – a loosely cut, waist-less, bust-less, and totally hot style that revolutionized the way women dressed.” The boas, the feathers, the pearls, the fabulous headbands….style of the 20’s are still roaring.
