I spent the last week in Kiev, Ukraine. It has been a dream of mine to finally meet the woman whose work I am just in love with. She is one of the top Russian/Ukraine artists and her images are published extensively. I have been following her work for a few years now and I am always amazed at each creation she brings out. I was so surprised when I got in touch with her that she would like to do some work with me. Her name is Kassandra and you can see her work here.
I took some shots of her in an old house in the center of Kiev:
I just wanted to share this cos it has really made my year :)

She'd be labeled a heretic or a terrorist by the purists. :-P
Congrats on a great opportunity and experience, Gary! Anyone who inspired you is automatically an inspiration to me. Awesome stuff from her and from you. |

Unbelievable talent Gary and congrats for making all the right moves. Think Art's right though... there would probably be a thread trashing her work eventually... :) |
