In which Demi shares her arty finds #4

Aaaaand here's some more that caught my eye!

Kyle Thompson




Kyle Thompson's self-portraiture is stunning in ways which I can't fully verbalise; visceral, human, ethereal yet tortured. Or, better put:

'His images have a beautiful sense of movement to them, especially in the recurring presentation of the fluidity of windswept fabric, which often complements his serene expression. Many of the photographer's images alternate between presenting a visual interpretation of inhaling a breath of fresh air and being suffocated by some unnatural force. However, both of these approaches offer something surreally exquisite.' (Source)

Lisa's photography is an uplifting contrast between busy city streets and the delicate elegance of ballet dancers. Perfectly poised against the urban elements, the ballerinas seem even more vibrant and serene.

Olivia Bee may only be 19 years old, but her distinctively dreamy, verging-on-trippy use of colours and refractions caught my eye - as well as the eyes of high-profile brands such as Hermes, Levi's and The New York Times. Her pictures remind me fiercely of the word 'vitality'. And the 90's.

 Joanna Lemanska has produced a portfolio of stunning photos which captures the essence of Paris perfectly - and the addition of water reflections push her images to a new level of detail and beauty. I wanted to share every last photo, but there would have been too many, so I heartily recommend you click here to check the whole portfolio.

That's all for my arty round-up (for now!) I've got some beauty posts in the pipeline, so keep your eyes peeled my lovelies! xo.

In which Demi shares her arty finds #3

How stunning are these photos of ballerinas tumbling into sleep? I'd love to buy the first one and frame it. Vanessa Paxton's whole website is full of gorgeous photography, I highly recommend checking her out - here. 

The subtleties of the details and shades of white bright against the dark background are what catch my attention the most. Dreamy. xo.
