It seems fitting, that at this time of the year, when the warmth and moisture are intoxicating, dizzying… flora is displaying riotous growth and color, and the power and majesty of summer storms are all in play that SPIRIT & FLESH would decide to publish its first full digital issue, IN BLOOM, which offers four unique covers: Rose McGowan, Dawn, Erika Velez & Luke James.
This digital issue is filled with a magnificent virtual garden of talent and creativity, many features of which were tended with love and care by our Guest Editor and Creative Director Paco Lampecinado. Paco brought his heart, vision and creative eye, along with a host of talent, including covers with artists Luke James and Dawn, and stories with artists like Ro James, Mereba, Bambaata Marley, Paulo Goude, Patrick-Ibanez, to name a few.
Actresses and activists Rose McGowan and Erika Velez round out our cover stories with insightful interviews and photos so hot you could fry an egg on them.
In addition, director and actor Nana Ghana shares the light of her illuminated life and the amazing vocal range talent Alyson Cambridge introduces us to her wonderfully complex characters.
Photographer Matt Licari takes us way out in the country with his fashion and lifestyle story to (at least emotionally) escape the city heat. If you wish to get even further away, photographer Julian Harold takes us to the areas in Hawaii which are seemingly untouched by mankind.
Elvira Piedra, Andrea Belluso, Xavier Ancarno, Alexander Klingspor and Yuanyi Zhang deliver fragrant stories that will send your head reeling.
So, sit back, grab a mint julep and your sun block, and start swiping or download… Oh, the places you will go!
