"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don't bother concealing your thievery- celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: 'It's not where you take things from, it's where you take them to.'"
So very sad to hear of the death of Eiko Ishioka. She was one of my favorite designers and art directors. Her work with Tarsem Singh produced images that are seared into my brain forever for their stunning beauty.

Ishioka created some of the most stunning costumes I’ve ever seen. She will be sorely missed.

Three Days
- completed December, 2009
- 30x30x2 inches wooden panel.
- Acrylic Paint.
- 6 layers (plus gesso).
- over 1,400 different hand-mixed colors each individually mixed and documented.
- The shapes were all gridded out and drawn by hand individually before being freehanded.
I’m not sure if you’ll remember this painting, but it is a really good example of my love of systems, no color is positioned next to one too similar, which is due to a complex system I cannot put into words yet use regularly. this is also the piece for which I stayed awake for a total of three days without assistance from caffeine painting those dang shapes.
