About the Artists:

The 'Minimalist Series'

A Portrait Of Fashion Designer Alina Pedko (Of The Minimalist Fashion Label Iinco) Wearing Her Own Design, With Her Devon Rex Cat Mango.
This Work Is Part Of My Latest Series based on the scientific theory Of 'Enclothed Cognition,' which has found that the clothes we wear can directly affect what we say and do. This is something that greatly fascinates me and as a result, I am cataloguing the 'Character' of fashion influences at this point in time through a series of portraits.
