How do you find all the fashion photography Araki used for references?
A lot of them are really well known! It used to be harder to find them, you'd have to do some creative googling and then reverse image search to get the name of the photographer, year etc. But it feels like now people are really good at sharing them as new Araki art comes out. And I think the jojowiki's adding a page devoted to this.
So some of the stuff I post is my own finds but a lot of it's out there already (either way, I try to do my own photo edits). fwiw Viramontes' and Lopez's art is referenced a lot in Araki's earlier stuff and after that Araki uses lot of Versace ads. Versace's Men without Ties artbook inspired a lot of Jojo chapter and cover art.
Beyond the fashion and pop culture stuff, Araki's heavily influenced by classical Italian art, Gaughin for his pink skies and general use of color, and his latest art's got him returning to classic Japanese masterworks for inspiration, it's really fun to see how he fuses that into his own style.
