Tim Burton just what the doctor orders.

Tim Burton is refreshingly different. He has craved out a style for himself which is truely distingtive and recognisable.
From Costumes to Hair & Makeup, the Props, Backdrops, scenes, the attention to detail, and his use of the same actors. Johnny Depp & Helena Bonham Carter.
His is an artist and creative genius I am truely inspired watching any of his movies he opens the flood gates and lets if flow. Just what the doctor orders for creative block all you artists & designers out there, 'some Tim Burton once a day for a week'.

Movies Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Big Fish, Charlie & The Chocolate factory, Sweeney Tod, Corpse Bride and now Alice in Wonderland.

Check out new movie trailer shoot for Alice in Wonderland due out 2010.

Wood be Nice

As i work for as a designer for a furniture manufacturing company, i have always wanted to do more with the wood waste which really adds up and the end of each month ranging in size and shapes.
Heres a few things ive found.

The Great

Annie Leibovitz the great american portrait photographer, her infamous portfolio ranges from

the early days of Rolling Stone Magazine's famous Lennon & Yoko shot, to Vanity Fairs Pregnant Demi Moore, Tom Ford Hollywood and Miley Cyrus coming of age shot,

she makes photography an Art Form, adding her characteristic (if not sometimes controversial) drama to each shot she takes.

She truly is inspirational and one of a kind.
