Top model Maryna Linchuk graces Vogue Japan's March 2013 beauty issue in an cover story entitled 'Playing with Color'. The fun photoshoot takes inspiration from the works of legendary pop artist Roy Lichtenstein with its bright display of color to its dotted image detailing.
Channeling some of the American artist's most loved pieces, the portrait series showcases some of the season's hottest cosmetic looks. Lichtenstein's work often explores themes of romance and heartbreak and takes inspiration from illustrated comic book panels.
The 'Playing with Color' Vogue Japan editorial is fiercely feminine. The vibrant beauty story features exaggerated, collaged and stencilled makeup looks by Andrew Gallimore and a flirty wardrobe by stylist Beth Fenton. Captured by CLM photographer Lacey, this artful editorial redefines a vision of the modern pinup girl.
