Beautiful watercolor fashion illustrations by New Zeland based illustrator and painter Nadia Flower. Fragile, delicate, yet graphic and strong – these are the elements that define Nadia Flower's quite beautiful illustration work. Combining hand-drawn and computer-based imagery, Nadia works happily across a variety of visual mediums, from fine art painting to fashion and textile, as well as pure illustration for the editorial and advertising markets. Check all the portfolio links below.

Raul Allen

Posted by tb4

Absolutely fantastic illustrations from Madrid based illustrator Raul Allen. I just can't stop looking at his portfolio. When you check out the portfolio make sure you scroll down near the bottom of the gallery for the sketchbook links, they are well worth it. A little about Raul below, then another great illustration, then the portfolio links below all of that...enjoy.

The town of Valladolid saw him grow up, come and go. While in Salamanca he graduated from Fine Arts, later on he moved to Boston to study Illustration and Design. He currently lives in Spain. He is been always searching for a way to see the inside and outside of things, to the extreme of sleeping with his eyes open.

His work has been selected and awarded by the Society of Illustrators of NY 49th Annual Exhibition, Illustration West 43, 3x3 Magazine of Contemporary Illustration, The National Drawing Award Gregorio Prieto, Expocomic,Jovenes Creadores2006 Comunidad Madrid , Artis Gallery Drawing Award, Arte Joven of La Junta de Castilla y Leon, and La Diputación de Valladolid. His work has been exhibited in New York, Boston, Madrid and Barcelona.

Antony Hare

Posted by tb4


If you have not had a chance to check out Antony Hare's illustrations you have to get to his site, linked below, and check them all out. The Toronto based illustrator has got to be one of the most prolific I have ever come across. Name a star or political person and he probably has an illustration of them on his site. I put a couple of my favorites above but there are so many to check out I had a hard time choosing just two.

Most, if not all, of his illustrations are available for purchase on his site also. With the Canadian dollar falling lately against just about every major currency out there, it is a bit cheaper these days to own one of his illustrations. Have fun checking out his site, and come back and leave a comment about which is your favorite.

Alberto Cerriteño

Their world, our children
Puffy Tree

Absolutely fantastic art prints and illustrations from Portland based Mexican illustrator Alberto Cerriteño. Strongly inspired by urban vinyl toys, alternative cartoons, and the pop surrealism movement, Alberto Cerriteño has developed his own very personal technique and style, having always present a delicate hints of traditional Mexican artistic influences in his management of rich textures and decorative patterns. These contrast strikingly with the blending of desaturated colors and ink, sometimes featuring a vintage coffee finish.

Check out the rest of Alberto's work at his website albertocerriteno.com.

Si Scott

Posted by tb4

I am putting these up just for the sheer fact that I cannot get enough of Si Scott's work, and this is the first time that I have seen this piece. I am always super jealous of his work every time I see it, one of these days I'm going to sit down and try to replicate some of his work just to see if I can.

Luke Feldman

Posted by tb4

San Francisco based Australian artist Luke Feldman shot me an email today with some of his work. He has a new limited edition print coming out soon, 'Ester' will be limited to a run of 30 prints and can be seen in the picture above. Luke, aka skaffs, has won more awards and has been featured in more publications than I care to mention here, I'm really surprised this is the first of his work I have seen. I love the style of his work, a bit bizzare but always beautiful work. Check out one more of his pieces below, and also a quick video put together by Coothwork TV for Luke's Perpetual Kagemi Solo Art Exhibition.

This self taught illustrator has a very cool style, if not a bit grungy, is grungy a word. Check out one more of Raphael's pieces below, and all of his work at his website, linked at the bottom.

Björn Hurri

Posted by tb4


Absolutely fantastic artwork from Björn Hurri, he works in a number of different mediums from your basic sketching with pen and ink to oils and acrylics. He has a lot of work over at his site, bjornhurri.com. The site takes a little bit to load but it is well worth the wait, although the waiting for the site to load is most likely on my end because my computer sounds like it is going to blow up today.

For you Star Wars fans out there Björn has a great series going over at Gorilla Artfare called Steampunk Star Wars, take a minute and go check it out even if you don't like Star Wars the sketches are just brilliant. You can see Yoda below, the little green guy never looked so good, although I am wondering what he is smoking.

Kate Lightfoot

Posted by tb4


I got a very nice little surprise in my inbox today, miss Kate Lightfoot, a.k.a Scarlett Cat, decided to send me some of her latest works. Scarlett is a self-taught Melbourne artist who draws flirty, quirky big-eyed girls. She works mostly in colored pencil and ink, and achieves some fantastic results. You can buy her work over at her etsy site, seriously I love this girl because she has prints for as little as $4.50, finally an artist who understands not everyone has $1000 to spend on a print. Also if you happen to be in Australia you can check out her work at Gallery 696. The rest of Scarlett's work can be seen at her site linked below, check it out there is a lot of good work there.

McCain

Posted by tb4

Nice work from Illinois based artist Zeb Love. I don't necessarily dislike John McCain, although I think his pick for VP was pretty laughable. Especially with all the stuff that has come to light about her in the past couple of days, anyone else think that he only chose her to make a play at the disgruntled Hillary Clinton supporters. But enough of the political stuff, go and check out the rest of Zeb Love's work over at his portfolio, linked below, this is pretty much the only politically charged piece.
