Blind contour artist Ian Sklarsky - Expresso Morning Show.
Ian Sklarsky and his agent, Debbie Bacher spent the morning with show hosts Katlego Maboe, Ewan Strydom and Leigh Anne Williams last Friday. The level of professionalism and fun was off the charts. Ian was asked to draw guest singer Nevio Passaro. The blind contour method was put to the test when Ian was also asked to draw their mascot, a french bull dog. All 3 dogs gate crashed the scene, all the while Ian answered questions by Katlego on live television. Not only does this prove that Ian has really harnessed the concept of blind contour, but also wins him the status of mutli-tasker of note! Ian is well known for bringing an incredibly personalized element to brand activations and VIP events. Recently Ian was commissioned to create an adult colouring book for New York City hotel group, Yotel. Please get in touch to work with Ian.

Discovered by Oprah, Represented by Artists & Legends Creative Management - Photographer Sivan Miller.
In his motifs, Sivan Miller seeks the face of the 21st century. His feel for unique looking models, fashion, and locations all combine into cool portraits offering the beholder a new perspective on today’s world. In his choice of models, he looks for a certain “alien feeling”—for types that will take us on a trip to the near future. In doing so, Sivan often sets standards in the field of lifestyle photography.
Being discovered by the legendary talk-show host Oprah Winfrey propelled his career even further. Today, this young photographer belongs to the emerging masters of Fashion Photography. His sense for faces and his modern staging all make for a laid-back but also very secure visual vocabulary.
We love his aesthetic, yet somewhat lifestyle approach to his editorial work. He also has an incredible imagination which comes across in his highly styled, futuristic campaigns. You can see more of Sivan's work here: http://www.artistsandlegends.com/photography-1/#/sivan-miller-editorial-photography/
