Gary and Suzette Amundson had a successful showing at the Tustin Art Walk, displaying their beautiful hand crafted dichroic glass pendants and other glass art. They had a pretty good turnout, with high interest from customers with the hand-cut pieces. Architectural glass was also of interest to many prospective customers.

Model/Actress Cecilia was the subject of HDPortrait.com’s “avant-garde portrait”. The photography was shot in my studio (which you know can be anywhere in Orange County, LA, etc.)

The entire process took several days, including shopping for design elements, fabric, ornamentation, meeting with the makeup artist Scarlette and her assistant to artistically paint Cecilia’s face, using airbrush, feather and lashes. The set consisted of the stretched fabric material on the floor. A scaffold is set atop the fabric. The photographer stands atop the scaffold and shoots straight down. Set styling by Gary Amundson (with thanks!)
