Icons are everywhere!

An icon is someone who makes an effort. Art makes an effort. Therefore art is an icon. Marilyn Monroe was and is an icon and a work of art as well. Hence Marilyn Monroe and art have a nature in common. Icon - Art - Marilyn is iconic.

Fierce Dark Eyes - Transformations - 2nd Cycle

Hey there again! This February Icon Art Marilyn ran the "Transfromations" project to celebrate its one year anniversary, and after a bit of a hiatus the project is back on its second cycle. Once more in combination with Dita Whip




This time the look we were going for was a dark eye, gorgeous red lips and a very light, white skin to counter the dark eye. The look started off with a light foundation and lots of highlighting. Afterwards contouring was added before the powder. For the eyes I uses Berry M's black glitter eyeshadow and some simple clown white blended in together. To finish the eyes of white was added to the water line and a visible black lower eyeliner. To finish off the look the lips were covered with dark red lipstick and a bit of glitter. Then Nena, my lovely volunteer, had fun with the pictures. And she is a stunning beauty rocking different wigs as well as my top hat with the signature "D". Give her some applause!





These two pictures give you a dark side as well as a golden twenties take on big hair with some ombre in it. Besides the dark energy the fist picture has its is very interesting how the shadow plays along. Same goes with the second picture. Both my favorites.
