We present a new method of phenomenologically modelling light curves of variable stars using Principal Component Analysis techniques that provide a realistic description of the variability with a minimum of free parameters. Examples of this method are demonstrated for the magnetic CP stars HD 90044 and HD 125248.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
