Dead Pan

I wanted to post these images from San Francisco Dia de Los Muertos celebration taken by photographer Tristan Savatier. I do not know of his work, but his images from this particular event are worth looking at. This face paint in these images is what struck me.... the body art is beautifully done and it appears an airbrush was used in the process, as well as stenciling. Ok, so i wish this was an image of my own painting, but give me a minute, i will be back with some original Ms. Beck body art..
Check Tristan's flickr page to see more great pictures of those west coast "dead" creative hippies!

Dress UP

Unfortunately, i do not know who the owner of these images is. I found them online during one of my cyber travels years ago. I rediscovered them and wanted to post them because i love them so much. The subject transforms herself in every image using traditional head pieces, make up and found objects. I found about 20 of them...all stemming from different cultures, all modern and unique. Please comment if you know the artist who made these self portraits. Meanwhile i will keep searching for her. If anyone knows please let me know!

02.01.09 Kimiko Yoshida. I found her again finally! Please look at her website. I think her work is so inspiring.
