I have been working on a project for which I had to visit Miu Miu page. Have you seen images from this collection? The ones with Mia Wasikowska.... AM a big fan of hers, but that's not important here. I was just blown away by everything here and instantly felt inspired. I just wanted to express them my way. Just like art should be ( though am not implying am an artist, but that's a rant for another day...). Anyway, I have been working on these on stolen time for the last week or so. These are just two, am planning to make another 2 in the series, but as it's taking long, thought it would be smart to post something. I hope you like my take on them. Madame Prada really knows what she's talking about. I mean these are not my usual style at all. I don't do patterns, I am not so much into retro either. Even this smidgen of Frieda Kahlo I feel she is channeling here is not my thing ( although I have great respect and admiration for Frieda)... But somehow all together. I just had to do it!
Oh, Maya! These are GORGEOUS. Yes, I'm a huge Miu Miu fan (ahem my latest blog post) and may be biased with this comment. I love this new style you're bringing to your illustrations. So much emotions!
ReplyDeletelike? they are fantastic!!! I seem to remember that you have an Etsy shop, but I'm not sure. do you? any chance you will sell some illustrations like these??

The question might be, who doesn't Miu Miu call to? They have had my number for some time. Always a home run for me.
ReplyDeleteI love them Maya, and I love the way your art is changing, keep them coming :)
ReplyDeleteThe first illustration is FANTASTIC! I love how you combine detail and monocolour.
ReplyDeleteHope you`re having a nice weekend, Jen
Hello Maya, how have you been? These illustrations are so, so lovely!
ReplyDeleteAnyway the thing, in my humble opinion, about Miuccia Prada's collections are that everyone falls in love with them eventually! Even the haters, given enough time. She's really something else.
