Absence of Draping

In the midst of this whole 80's revival there seems to be little to none Grecian inspired clothing.

Other than this, I've got nothing to say. I've just been painting recently, I did a portrait of Jim Morrison and it came out better than I thought. Here it is:



Have a good week everyone!
