Oh and I've just picked up the Vanity Fair with Katherine Heigl on the cover, and Mr Walker has done a smashing editorial piece, capturing the portraits of a "cross section of proud standard-bearers in Britain's long tradition of eccentricity". Perfect and perfect.

[Diamond Star]

that painting is beautiful

I love the quote where he says of his favourite films...

"the scene in the Wizard of Oz when the whole set turns from black and white into colour... that changed my life forever!"

that moment is so often referenced, but Tim's work really is a testament to colour, so it's a genuine compliment for the scene

^funny, i watched that movie on TCM yesterday for the hundredth time. i can definitely see how that would make an impact on his creative vision.

I believe the tree was painted by Shona Heath, the set designer he most commonly works with. She is responsible for the creation of some of the most fantastic and beautiful sets his photography is set amongst. I've always wondered what the creative process is ... do they come up with the ideas together? Or does he brainstorm the idea and she makes it for him? That tree painting is one of my most favourite Tim photos ever. That entire shoot was in an old Casa Vogue that is one of my most jealously guarded possessions. THank you for posting it ... x

 

[TanyaKiller]

^Indeed, it makes me very very JEALOUS ! Would you have time to scan it, please?
*drools*

 

[leeloo]

Absolutely! it's delicious. You just want to buy an old crumbling villa and paint the walls.... I just found another Walker book!

I Love Pictures! Tim Walker

The English fashion photographer Tim Walker, born in 1970 in Devon, has a fondness for such dream-logic scenarios. His models often occupy fantastical and elaborate sets whose baroque props rhyme with their costumes in subtle and sometimes wistful ways. Formerly assistant to photography legend Richard Avedon, and having made a name for himself in the pages of American, British, Italian and Japanese editions of Vogue, Walker is currently one of the world’s most influential fashion photographers. This volume is the first to present Walker’s complete works to date.
