I love literature, especially in fashion and paintings!
Lately I've been quite interested in rekindling my love for my childhood favorites.
I've been working on a series of book cover body paintings on willing participants (first, boyfriend) and taking pictures to enter for Sans Merci.
My very first is by Shel Silverstein, and I did a quick 15 minute painting for my darling on The Giving Tree. Last but not least, I couldn't resist buying a Where the Wild Things Are tie! I have a huge soft spot for WTWTA.
Does anyone have any suggestions on body paintings for book covers? I'd love some suggestions!
I grew up in love with Where the Wild Things Are! That tie is absolutely adorable lol so cute. Did you like Goodnight Moon? That was definitely my favorite. I love your giving tree painting too! Classic
ReplyDeleteI loved Goodnight Moon. There's just so many great childhood books. And who could forget The Very Hungry Caterpillar?
ReplyDeleteWow Laura. You are talented. My husband would never let me draw on him for the amount of time you spent on this. Granted, my artistic ability is lacking so there may be that. I think that it would be really cool if you adapted a Grimm fairy tale into a painting.
