Neat Shiny Owl is an idea; one that combines maximal input with minimal output. Paying homage to past art that has achieved timelessness is intentional, all while highlighting black women, and women/people of colour.
Influences on this work include: graphic design and illustration, philosophy, anime, video games, film and television, 17th-18th century paintings, album covers and the music they envelope, as well as several photographers past and present.
In this gallery you'll find composites of beauty, fashion, editorial, avant-garde, art nude and a contemporary interpretation of pinup. Thank you for visiting this site.
