Oh, Just behave Thyself, Mademoiselle Hernandez!, originally uploaded by Alphaholics Non-Anonymous Art Studios.
In this strangely life-like facsimile of one of our favorite Transistor Subsistor Sisters, Metamorpho/sis, the viewer may seem bemused and cajoled into stupor by the lively demeanor of the subject of the rendering. However, the viewer would do well to note the creation of a wide variety of not-too-terribly-subtle touches of fashion invention, tooled and drawn by the illustrator of this piece, one L. Llewellyn James.
In an attempt to, apparenlty, lend some greater substance to Metamorpho/sis' adornments (with said embellishments standing in stark contrast to the rather pallid and plain work uniform our dear Metamorpho/sis had originally been wearing at the time), L.Llewellyn James chose to create an entire phalanx of garb accessories meant to enliven Metamorpho/sis' demeanor. Not the least which being the "Italicks" ensignia draping Metamorphosis' right shoulder lapel. Here, Mr. James had been attempting to emulate wholesale the sort of urban attire coiffure so readily apparent in urban streetwear manufacturers/clothing lines such as Akademiks, Fubu, Sean John, et al.
