I think it's so interesting that you have such an amazing collection of these modelish fashion looking illustrations with peculiar text and imagery of war, tanks, death etc. I'm just curious as to why you've taken this direction because from what I can remember, your work didn't always have this kind of look or message. But then again my memory isn't the greatest. I just find it fascinating that you pair these women with some of the ideas. And of course they always look beautiful. I'm definitely a fan, you've got one huge massive series of these from what I see. It's nice.

mydeadpony Yup you're right. I used to hide the meaning because I did not know how to express it correctly.
I felt it was time to dig deeper in my ideas because there is no point calling myself an artist if i could not transmit what i think/feel osit.
I have some clues about why i do such things, it's not a simple explanation; it has to do with my readings, life experiences and so on.
Maybe it has to do with making ugly things beautiful and vice-versa, to help the viewer to re-think what he is seeing,.. I dunno maybe it's not important after all.
Thank you for your comment, much appreciated :D
