Beatrice Boyle

Ok, so if you haven't heard about the LCF fashion illustration graduate Beatrice Boyle yet, don't fret. I have a feeling we will be seeing a lot more of her, especially since miss Boyle has just done a t-shirt style capsule collection for Browns! She is one damn lucky girl, but looking at some of her images explains it all. Her idea is deconstruction and essentially she just takes glossy images of models and 'destroys' them by painting over them. I absolutely love the outcome though; the large, flat, vertical brushstrokes totally contrast the soft, supple, often erotic lines of the female figures. 







Her current exhibition is on now at John Princes Street, RHS Terrace, LCF, London. However if you're planning on going you have to be quick as it finishes on the 3rd of march, this Thursday! Personally my only chance to go is thursday but knowing what i'm like, i always plan to go to many exhibitions yet never get round to it, specially since i have a deadline for next week and a hell of a lot of work to get done. :(

So, i leave it to one of you to check it out for me! 
Open 10am to 5pm.
enjoy!
