Safari

Animal print is trendy. So I heard… but how much is too much? Could a fashionista wear animal prints (multiple, like lots and lots of prints!) while on a Safari? I don’t think so. IF for this week is (you guessed it): safari. I remember seeing a TV show once, the guy was on a safari with his cameraman, and he was saying to him: “No, I am not really scare, cause I know that even if I cant out run most predator, I can still out run YOU!”… pretty funny.

Parait que les imprimés d’animaux sont très à la mode. Mais est-ce que trop, c’est trop? Est-ce vraiment possible de porter ces imprimés partout? Même en safari? Je crois pas. Le thème de IF de cette semaine (safari) m’a fait penser à une émission télé (me souviens plus laquelle) ou l’animateur, en pleine jungle, répond à son caméraman: “Non, je n’ai pas vraiment peur des prédateurs, je sais qu’ils courent plus vite que moi et que je ne peux pas les semer,  mais je sais aussi que je cours plus vite que TOI!” Assez drôle et surtout perspicace,  je trouve.

    Love the storyline and the way you collaged different feelings together! Love the leaves, the background and the fashionista in the jungle!!!

    This is great piece ! All these animal patterns , I am sure these ladies appear in the real world as well!!
    I have to think about people which take a walk on sunday afternoon in the park and their outfit is as if they were on Safari somewhere in Africa!!

    I agree love your work and your sense of humor. Animal prints can easily be too much. But your fashionista is looking “fierce” as Tyra Banks would say.

    Hehe Thanks Penelope!! Yeah, saw that on tv years ago (about the out-running someone to survive a predator) and it still makes me laugh just thinking about it. I think it’s just pretty clever.

    I love the way that the patterns and textures work together here. I am completely fascinated by artists who are able to acheive such beleivable gesture with collage… Just awesome!

    Excellent!!!! She definitely needs to be watching her back. She’s sure a long way from Saks Fifth Avenue.

    It’s a jungle out there. I love the apprehensive pose. She’s cute too. Very nice work. My sister-in-law loves animal print. I hate it. I don’t get it at all. (The animal print fad, not your art!)

    As for your art, very nice colors. I really dig the big sullen eyes.

    [...] Safari by Isabelle Cardinal : I adore well-done collage/assemblage and this is just that; definitely one of the coolest concepts I saw this week. [...]
