It's made him a popular get for music videos: Lemon has lent his creative make up talents to <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV1FrqwZyKw">Lady Gaga</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6ZfA5QZDHY">N.E.R.D.</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OULfz1l7m5I">Basement Jaxx</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClBjgLZ3yew">Beck</a>, not to mention Flaunt's cover artwork for Issue 112 in collaboration with the artists Justin Lowe and Jonah Freeman. His latest comes from Alexander, as in the debut solo project of Alex Ebert, the Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros front man. If previously Lemon used skin as a canvas, here he's using it more as a landscape, swapping beards for tiny trees with the help of <a href="http://www.temptupro.com/">TEMPTU Pro</a>. It's really best if you just saw the facescapes for yourself:</p><p><iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/22619663" frameborder="0" height="225" width="400"></iframe></p><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/22619663">Alexander "A Million Years"</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/benjaminkutsko">benjamin kutsko</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p><br /><p class="rteleft"> You'll be able to see the drawing, art and paintings of Lemon starting May 26 at the <a href="http://www.hereiselsewhere.com/">Here is Elsewhere</a> gallery in the Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles. </p>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037989758960194002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229216928115746035.post-16920191101686476522011-04-12T13:35:00.000-07:002011-04-12T13:40:35.297-07:00Sounds of the city<h6 style="font-weight: normal;" class="uiStreamMessage" ft="{"type":"msg"}"><span class="messageBody" style="font-size:130%;">there are 3 man-made sounds of civilization i love. the church bell ringing at noon, a train's horn in the distance, and the wheels of a skateboard clicking across the sidewalk.</span></h6>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037989758960194002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229216928115746035.post-74694161683611926742011-04-09T20:41:00.000-07:002011-04-11T15:40:19.373-07:00Newest post for Diane Pernet's A Shaded View On Fashion<p style="text-align: left;"></p>Hello,<br /><br />I've been lagging on posts here, but you can find me sometimes over on the legendary Diane Pernet's site "A Shaded View On Fashion." I've admired her work for years, so its an honor to be an LA correspondent for her site.<br /><br />As they say, "write what you know."

They have a talent to organize and communicate a nostalgic mixture of pop, counter-culture and psychedelia with their own point of view. Its capturing the spirit of freedom, "outlaws" and forward thinkers. They trip us up with their psychology. Is the work from then, now, or the future? In more simple terms, I like what I see here. I am happy to encounter the artists and works below that I'd like to share with you.<br />THE REST OF THE STORY IS <a href="http://dianepernet.typepad.com/diane/2011/04/getting-into-human-nature-pyramids-the-psychedlic-in-los-angeles.html">HERE</a><br /><br /></blockquote>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037989758960194002noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229216928115746035.post-54038311195863087902011-03-25T20:57:00.000-07:002011-03-25T20:59:29.836-07:00You find out who your real friends are when you're involved in a scandal. --Elizabeth Taylor<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlzTvjtGD2zZvyzeKsRF_LGUeAXMMV5vUitPqFHq5iTghk7I8YzE4jFeqj956kCgfzv6L7gVWNF6zz_1JiBqWABs2SLMpfRmxdtK1sBjYccrTtS1JW-GlVDTFT4f0_13ReUoerMIcKGQ/s1600/Elizabeth-Taylor-in-Cleopatra-elizabeth-taylor-6523984-384-516.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 298px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlzTvjtGD2zZvyzeKsRF_LGUeAXMMV5vUitPqFHq5iTghk7I8YzE4jFeqj956kCgfzv6L7gVWNF6zz_1JiBqWABs2SLMpfRmxdtK1sBjYccrTtS1JW-GlVDTFT4f0_13ReUoerMIcKGQ/s400/Elizabeth-Taylor-in-Cleopatra-elizabeth-taylor-6523984-384-516.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588233285957858306" border="0" /></a>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037989758960194002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229216928115746035.post-29980436446735904132011-03-25T20:48:00.000-07:002011-03-25T20:54:18.740-07:00Elizabeth Taylor on the Loves of Her Life To Barbara Walters<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,124,0" id="ABCESNWID" height="278" width="344"><param name="movie" value="http://abcnews.go.com/assets/player/walt2.6/flash/SFP_Walt_2_65.swf"><param name="quality" value="high"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><param name="allowNetworking" value="all"><param name="flashvars" value="configUrl=http://abcnews.go.com/video/sfp/embedPlayerConfig&configId=406732&clipId=13204420&showId=13204420&gig_lt=1301111323934&gig_pt=1301111333821&gig_g=2"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><embed src="http://abcnews.go.com/assets/player/walt2.6/flash/SFP_Walt_2_65.swf" quality="high" allowscriptaccess="always" allownetworking="all" allowfullscreen="true" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashvars="configUrl=http://abcnews.go.com/video/sfp/embedPlayerConfig&configId=406732&clipId=13204420&showId=13204420&gig_lt=1301111323934&gig_pt=1301111333821&gig_g=2" name="ABCESNWID" height="278" width="344"></embed></object>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037989758960194002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229216928115746035.post-31989468826388619652011-03-21T17:32:00.000-07:002011-03-21T17:33:21.311-07:00Misery Bear's Comic Relief Starring Kate Moss<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/w0Yr9QzOb-Q?fs=1" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="295" width="480"></iframe><br />Weird + Dark + Hilarious.Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037989758960194002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229216928115746035.post-10284551160756253812011-03-08T11:47:00.000-08:002011-03-08T11:55:06.129-08:00Quote of the day/year."Guts are good for more than violin strings, but either way you should listen to them."--Eddie Best Peel III<br /><br />YES!!!!

Its so much like Japan to me in that the people work hard and play harder! With places open til 4AM, its no wonder people burn out in that city.

<br />
<br /></span></div>For a feature on one of my favorite sites, <a href="http://www.nowness.com/day/2010/12/16/1220/liz-goldwyn-by-tommy-ton">NOWNESS</a>, photographer/blogger Tommy Ton of the <a href="http://jakandjil.com/blog/">Jak & Jil </a>blog (also a favorite) came out to LA and interviewed/photographed the always lovely <span style="font-weight: bold;">Liz Goldwyn </span>and <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.itsacurrentaffair.com"><span style="font-weight: bold;">A Current Affair</span></a>, the vintage pop-up marketplace she hosted in conjunction with her paperback book launch <span style="font-style: italic;">"Pretty Things: The Last Generation of Burlesque Queens."</span>
<br />
<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">A Current Affair</span> was founded by Joey Grana of Scout and Richard Wainwright, a private vintage dealer. While this event is an ongoing client of Trent PR, its also a pleasure as I've been a vintage fashion lover since my teen years.
<br />
<br />Guests of the event included <span style="font-weight: bold;">Marisa Tomei,</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Jessica Stroup</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">Lisa Eisner, </span>as well as many of the best Hollywood stylists, designers, and style influencers.
<br />
<br />As someone who has always felt the thrill of the hunt when searching for vintage treasures, I love the below quote from Tommy's interview with Liz.
<br /><blockquote><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:100%;" >TT: Where does enthusiasm or passion—like collecting or historical research—cross over into fetish?

Its rather dreamy to be working on a project with Mick and he couldn't be any more wonderful as a person to work with. His images not only captured those stolen & intimate moments amongst friends, but also high influenced the fashion world in showing off the looks of some of our most favorite pop culture icons.<br /><br />Saturday, December 18th from 4-6PM Mick will be on hand signing his new book at the opening of his new exhibition at Confederacy in LA. Its a great opportunity to have a chat and get a personalized gift for yourself or a loved one.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">MICK ROCK EXPOSED: THE FACES OF ROCK N' ROLL</span><br />Exhibition & Book Launch at Confederacy<br />curated by Annie Wharton<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/PoxZZXMfwh1iNbfg4d8bKUT3O82sYzSQBH8UVO5jBSyI0LxID6d18pn2UGeB7Zt1ldFAu_sLUkZ8SH72VCLKyp8uyThfQXUpGV8uViN6LpyNx0ZC" id="internal-source-marker_0.5246201565065962" height="449" width="384" /></div><span style="font-style: normal;
