Feature: An Le for DEP Magazine - Forbidden Love
An Le is back with his recent editorial for the Love issue of DEP Magazine. We here at S.V. love seeing his work and the affection couldn’t be more appropriate considering the theme of the issue!
This is what a fashion story should be. It plays on such a beautiful theme with perfect pacing from frame to frame. Each frame has a distinct place in the story.

First Grader Without Hands Wins National...
Penmanship is an art in itself. What’s amazing about this story is that this little girl, Annie Clark, has no hands, yet she won the national penmanship award!
She won $1,000 and a trophy for her prize. She already expresses interest in writing literature in the future.
Inspiring.

“We have a retouching test that we give to potential retouchers and will set up an interview if their work is up to our...

Real Life Photoshop: Geometric Tape
Urban spaces transform into florescent geometric illusions in artist Aakash Nihalani’s unique yet temporal works. He uses bright lines of tape to single out elements of the city landscape, giving them the look of having more dimensions than they actually have: doorways pop out of their flat walls, homeless people sit on seemingly raised platforms and highlighted bricks fall out of place.
