New Wave Victorian
When I saw the title New Wave Victorian on Spotted Sparrow I was quite confuse as to what it was, but it describes Victorian style drawings with a modern twist on them. The New Wave Victorian prints are really stylish and some quite funny, I was torn between which one to buy but I had made my mind up that I was going to get one. This is the one I decided to buy x Not only are these art prints and stationary attractive but they are also environmental and for a good price! http://www.spottedsparrow.com/

A few months ago, one of my closest friends went to a cosplay convention with her boyfriend. She was dressed up as Juiliet from Taylor Swift's song Love Story and her boyfriend as Romeo. She made her own mask and fan, bought the wig and hired the beautiful dress.
This hand made fan is only one of the many items she has created :)
This mask is so lovely and sparkly x
My friend is a photogropher and a very good one aswell! here are a few of the photos she took of her cosplay
And for those of you who haven't heard Taylor Swift's Love Story...
Tyson Ritter the lead singer of The All American Rejects, he has amazing hair, I wish all men had hair this nice:D
I created my own regency man from this brilliant Jane Austen inspired dress up doll: http://savivi.deviantart.com/art/Regency-Hero-Dress-Up-Doll-101669291 I call him Vincent lol :D

You cant see very well from this photo but the pilot has camouflage skin.
Inside the eye is a single chair underneath a light bulb, a bit like a torture room mwahahahah:D
I am doing this as my final piece except the rose is going to be tied around her head by a thorny vine which will also wrap around her body.
The woman's face I got from an Aussie shampoo advert in a magazine and the man is from a band called Mushroomhead
I started out drawing a Victorian man in formal wear but then realizing it wasn't surreal I drew a seagulls head and octopus tentacles on him. x

I find it funny that in the Victorian era as girls grew older their skirt lengths got longer. But nowadays, as girls get older their skirt lengths get shorter lol:)
Barry Copson from the Handlebar Club, his moustache is vintage and wonderful so I had to post it :D

These are brilliant Steampunk outfits, I love the colours and detail, though if it was my outfit think I would mix and match a few of the accessories
Surrealism
Getting so fed up with Surrealism. For a start I cant think of any new ideas, aaarrrrgghh! Secondly, I love Victorian style prints and I like using them in my work but its so upsetting having to destroy them by drawing ocotpus tentacles on their head :D
First Post!!!
