Francois Berthoud - Illustrator

[cerfas]

Love. I think this was in the fashion illustration thread--did it get split up? His stuff is so great..plus Visionaire is wonderful too

 

[Estella*]

no, it didn't get split up...i was just trying to start some seperate threads and hoped others would follow....we have a whole section for illustration now

cerfas?

 

[cerfas]

If you're asking what my username means...it's a shortened version of cerebral fashion. :>

 

[Estella*]

thank you but that's not what i meant (i actually came across that group on livejournal once since it is the only out of two that had listed rei kawakubo)

i meant, don't you want to start a thread on an illustrator you cherish?

 

[cerfas]

Oh oh I see!
That's funny, what is your livejournal name? We're closing it down to start a real website of some sort, I hope. Soon.

I don't know very much about illustration, but I will certainly start a thread once I find an illustrator I love.

 

[Estella*]

my username is estella_mare. i have just vaguely started this a few weeks ago.

a site would be great. i really think you and everyone else who does cerebral fashion have a wonderful eye for things.

 

[cerfas]

Wow, thank you so much. That means a lot coming from you.
