Naomi Campbell eyes of David LaChapelle
David LaChapelle is called the Salvador Dali of photography. Agree, very pretty comparison. Each of his photos - a story with meaning, background and development of the plot.
If my head is empty and there are no ideas in my blog, which I do sketches, I stimulate the imagination of the Renaissance paintings, architecture, erotic paintings, old issues of the magazine Playboy, the history of fashion and listening to music. I'm trying to stir your imagination. It's like a muscle that just have to get going. As soon as it turns out, the idea is not to stop.
