Wow, just absolutely whacked out work ranging from painting to vector to collage to design to drawing at StephD.biz. Wild wild stuff. Awesome but crazy.

Funny thing though, my other cat shirt is a cat too.

“I was born in 1986 in a small town called Zelenograd (’green-town‘) somewhere near Moscow, USSR. During my childhood I was taught the drawing basics by my father — that’s how it all started. I can clearly remember myself drawing on almost all surfaces later in school and then, spending free time at the university between the lectures, I started drawing letters.”

Las Hermanas are Lisa and Janelle Iglesias, the youngest of 4 daughters and second generation Americans. They used to share a studio in Bushwick, Brooklyn but they recently received an upcoming 6 month residency at the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris through the lower Manhattan cultural council for October 2008 through March 2009.

Really interesting work.

Choosing an image from Newman’s portfolio proved a difficult choice for this blogger. Ben Newman has a massive and amazing portfolio. Each piece of work is of a very high standard and is just as exciting as the last piece you looked at, so to decide which one to put up to represent Ben is hard to say the least.

Ben is a Bristol based illustrator with a wealth of drawings. Its hard to pin point what it is about the work that makes you fall in love with it!

Check it out. Click

Tom Judd is currently completing a Masters in Animation at the Royal College of Art. He graduated from Manchester Metropolitan with a 1st class BA(hons) in Illustration and Animation. He then founded 5oup in 2006 with partner James Chambers and has worked with clients such as Barclays, Burton, BBC and Doritos.

That’s all fine and dandy right? So what is really interesting, somewhat maddening and very inspiring about Mr. Judd is that he has committed to drawing in his sketchbook every single day for an entire year. Twice. He plans to do this a year on and a year off for a long time to come and he has recorded his progress. It’s pretty insane and there are actually some pretty interesting drawings in his sketchbook.

You can see how round two came out, day by day, everyday, here.

Justine Ashbee creates the kind of art that I think would be a lot more interesting in person than it appears small-scale on the internet. She creates large drawings using sharpies with the kind of curves you would swear had to be computer generated. It’s an interesting methodology and execution in what is definitely an original perspective.
