SON HOUSE'S BLACK TIE AFFAIR

CREDITS: GOOGLEY, BESPOK ORIG. SKETCH, DG SHOW

<>>//kinda strange how the first pictures i saw of the fall DG show surfaced not on style.com or nymag but on some chick's blog. i tried searching the show in full and couldnt find it anywhere..
thought that was awesome. 

alright moving right along- not sure if many of you have heard about this blues singer son house, let me summarize any extensive searches regarding his music into a couple words or less: whatareyouwaitingforhuh? great word- didnt think i was capable of that. i learned about him through another blues artist - leadbelly (for some authentic/raw sounds listen to "where did you sleep last night")

im sure many of you haven't noticed that i didnt post for like a week or two, well damnit i've been workin on my portfolio for fit, jack pulled an allnighter everyone, last time i did that, it was to enjoy my youth. willingfully.  walked into fit today and found out the review has been canceled. life is so fair everyone.  in the sketch above >>> i took the tie right off of son house's neck and dressed my girl up, and what else can go perfectly with a black tie then a lizard skinned toolbelt/bag...and is that like an extra pair of feet?  i hate putting my original sketches on here but hope you guys like it, it was in fact one of the many looks i procrastinated on for my fit portfolio and quite possibly something for my line?  AFTER the illustration was drawn (yeah i went there), i checked out a BLOG, and found the DG show...bow to bow with blackness, oh sonny. gosh im so full of words today...so try and read it this doesn't happen often.


* will have more sketches of recent shows coming in soon, i pinky swear.
