This is Vanessa's personal tumblrzine, for family and friends everywhere. I like all sorts of stuff, and I like to share.

If you'd like to see my work work, skip on over to www.vanessaholden.com.

In my real life you can find me at vanessaholden[at]mac[dot]com; in studios and meetings & offices quite (but not too) often; most happily at the beach; at Pearl Paint buying stuff for a project; at La Colombe or The Adore, & sometimes (just quietly) at Beard Papa, but then I don't like to talk about that particular addiction.

“I look at life as retouching,” Dangin says. “Makeup, clothes are just a transformation of what you want to look like.” 
Fascinating piece in the New Yorker on uber-photo retoucher Pascal Dangin (Pixel Perfect), via ngoc. Scary, amazing and fascinating. This point of view is so antithetical to my approach to living and presenting ‘the good life’ in my work it’s incredible, but I can’t help but appreciate his talent, skill and dedication to this new kind of hyper-tweaked imagery. I kind of want to know what the girl he wakes up next to looks like … now that would be fascinating …
