It all began 2 years ago with some digitally retouched street shots of Manhattan. Since then Izzy turned her artistic focus on the portrayal of people emotionally connected to her. She swapped the camera for acrylics & canvas and developed her own way of art work: Individual ornamentation, personalized coloring and – her distinctive trademark – the covering of the eyes in order to protect the souls and preserve mystery.
In the beginning of 2009 after seeing Izzy's artwork, Joe Dallesandro (Andy Warhol's muse 'little Joe) finally found the artist he was looking for to design his new T Shirt collection which is sold worldwide. Directly after, Punk Globe Magazine' published this very same design on their May 2009 cover. Since then Izzy has portrayed many famous faces and private people alike. Coming soon in 2010 Izzy's T-shirt art and a selection of her diverse art work will be featured in the book 'T-ADDICT' by Art Director Louis Bou - publisher Monsa/Barcelona.
