Madlen is a renowned fashion designer from Russia. Whereas, Hrant Keoshgerian is a renowned jewelry designer from Armenia. In addition, Sloppy Angel also brings to you Madlena Da Vinchi or in other words Madlen Krushev's wondrous artwork! Madlen has been a fashion designer for the last 18 years, with fashion shows, exhibitions (she is also a portraitist and an artist as youll see in a section of this site) behind her. She has her exclusive clientele both in Kuwait and around the world. Hrant in his right has a working and creative experience of over 12 years in the Jewelry Design and making field. A creative and motivated designer, Hrants jewelry inspires women to be beautiful, sensuous & feminine. Hrant's creations are irresistible with his creativity, dedication and motivation - he has known no boundaries, so without further a due, indulge, savor and choose. [PRWeb Aug 17, 2008] http://www.prweb.com/releases/2008/8/prweb1219924.htm Thu, 21 Aug 2008 16:51:14 -0700 podcrew@extrahoop.com http://www.sloppyangel.com. Madlen Krushev is a shining example of the positive direction that Russian fashion has taken since its explosive appearance on to the scene in the 1990's. As some may know, the Russian fashion world was greatly inhibited by past governmental control and has only been allowed to freely prosper during the past few decades. The pent up fashion sense of many Russians being allowed to suddenly release has been accredited to several brilliant designers such as Madlen to really come forth with their best designs. Hrant Keoshgerian is a renowned jewelry designer from Armenia and has been making jewelry and been involved in jewelry design for over 12 years. His brand name, H.K. Jewelry also known as H.K. Creations, is available worldwide and may be purchased through http://www.sloppyangel.com where there are photos of his designs and many of his sketches as well. According to the C.I.A. Factbook, Armenia's number one industry is diamond-processing. With jewelry making ranking fourteenth, it comes as no surprise that we should be seeing very talented jewelry designers like Hrant coming from Armenia. Sloppy Angel also supports honest to goodness charities for needy children and helpless animals such as: Orphan Sponsorship International and Animal Friends League of Kuwait. There are links to both on their website. Their fashionable women's clothing, art and jewelry are all available now online. This venture allows two wonderful talents to be available to the entire world. Russian fashion and Armenian jewelry have not been so easy for Americans and residents of other countries around the world to access until now. The joint venture promotes a rare and widely sought after Russian clothing line, the same designer's unique paintings and sketches and the popular jewelry styles from a country that really knows its jewelry, Armenia.

Kinnett's world class paintings can now be seen at his World Wide Web gallery www.jameskinnett.com. The website came about after two brothers, Alan and Jim Curtis, childhood friends of Kinnett's in Chillum, MD, renewed their friendships. The Curtis brothers work together in several Internet related businesses. They were surprised Kinnett had no web presence for his award-winning work. The childhood friends from the suburbs of Washington. D.C. formed Chillum Boys to market Kinnett's work on the web. "I remember Jimmy was gifted in elementary school. His sketches were accomplished even then. We met at a reunion after 35 years and I was astounded by his paintings. Showcasing them on the web was logical," said Alan Curtis. Kinnett's paintings, unparalleled in their realistic depiction of nature, may never have been created had it not been for a very realistic and adverse period in his life. "You'd better go back and do your painting," Kay Kinnett told her husband. "It's God's gift." So James Y. Kinnett picked up his brushes after a 20-year hiatus and, now, since his wife's cancer death in January 2001, has poured his attention into painting seven days a week. As Kinnett made his way back to Maryland from his wife's family home in Texas, he worked on a design of black scoters flying over the Chesapeake Bay with Thomas Point Lighthouse in the background. He finished the painting in a hotel in Tennessee in time to enter it in the fall Federal Duck Stamp competition. He didn't win, but kept working to finish three more paintings in time for the Maryland Duck Stamp competition. Friends encouraged him to enter the black scoter painting as well. That proved to be Kinnett's winner. Birds have always been winners for Kinnett. Born in Korea, he was adopted by an American service family, who brought him to Southern Maryland at age nine. "I didn't speak any English and I expected America to be like the pictures in catalogues," Kinnett says of that time. "My memory is indistinct, but the transition was not so easy. I was in third grade and I found a baby robin. That's what started my interest in birds. Every day before school, I went out and grubbed for worms to feed that baby," he says. Just as his unfolding interest helped Kinnett through the transition to a new land, it returned to help him recover after his wife's death. "I've always sketched and drawn, but after I got married I had to earn a living so I dropped art and got into marketing and sales," he explained. "That's not important any more. I'm lucky to have a second chance. God wants me to do something with this talent." Kinnett's paintings are watercolors,with the colors applied with a dry brush on dry paper to create an opaque image. "The hardest part is to get a perfect blend of tones in the sky or the background," says Kinnett. "The birds are easy." He works from sketches and his own photographs, using elements from a combination of shots and his knowledge of birds to create a unique image. In this case, a taxidermist friend sent detail-photos of wings, head and tail from a black scoter pair he was planning to mount. Maryland...
