Hello,

I wanted to share my pick for my favorite outfit at the 2012 SAG Awards that were televised this past Sunday. I was really stunned by Judy Greer’s dress. Her dress was designed by Colette Dinnigan and I thought it was elegant and chic! I really really like the embroidery on the dress; if you look closely, you can see the details peaking through… So, she is my pick for best dressed at the SAG Awards! Check again soon, who knows who I will be illustrating at the next award ceremony

I have to say that I was not too impressed with the dresses that made it on the red carpet at the 2012 Golden Globe Awards! I felt like most of them were unflattering, not elegant or plain repeats! It took me a while to find my favorite dress and I would almost venture out to says that this is my least unliked dress. Having said that I like the most about Jessica Alba’s dress is the small train as well as the intricate details on the dress. I also thought that the taupe color worked well on Jessica’s skin….I started with a sketch…who knows, I may turn this into an illustration at some point!

I absolutely love Christina Hendricks! Now, SHE is a Chic Pear! I first discovered Christina on the critically acclaimed show Mad Men. If you don’t know about the show, you must must check it out!! The show is set in the 1960s and revolves around a group of advertising executives and their friends and family. Sounds simple, right? Oh but it’s about the drama….so well written!! And the fashion too!! On the show, Christina Hendricks plays Joan, the office manager and some office manager she is! Apologetically fierce yet caring and feminine, she embodies the ultimate 1960s woman! I love her character and the entire show for that matter. Unfortunately, the show is coming to an end There’s one more season left. Still, the cast has recently been nominated for 19 Emmys so I’m keeping my fingers crossed!! In the meantime, I hope you enjoyed this celebrity illustration! Christina is on the cover of this month’s issue of Lucky Magazine and you can learn more about her by grabbing a copy of the mag. Stay tuned for the next sneak peak/celebrity illustrations…

As promised, here’s the illustration that I’ve been working on… It’s one of my fashion-inspired illustrations and it’s based on a Zooey Deschanel photo from the Winnie-the-pooh premiere that she attended earlier this month. When I first saw this picture, I was totally smiten by her dress!! Zooey is wearing a beautiful flower dress by Kate Spade. Zooey wrote and performed the song “So long” for the soundtrack of the movie. I had a lot of fun illustrating this one and I think I will be doing many more celebrity illustrations. Comment back and let me know what you think about this one and if you’d like to see more celebrity illustrations.
