Nanami Cowdroy creates lovely illustrations in ink.
Joy Ang is a remarkable young artist in Canada who works mostly with Photoshop to create these soft, painterly illustrations.
Tim Biskup’s style reminds me of one of the most surprisingly artistic shows on Cartoon Network.
My house rented and watched season after season, and I never got over the wide brushstroke flames in the series opening sequence.
This one’s a simple google image search for Kay Nielsen. His illustrations for East of the Sun, West of the Moon are especially beautiful, and right now, I can’t get enough of his work.
For the wiki: He was a Danish illustrator who lived during the “golden age of illustration”…
I love Cory Godbey’s illustrations— they’re kinda magical. His blog, light night rains, features the things that he’s been up to, including a look at his new book, Ticket.
(His other blog, the photoshop experiment, documents process once in a blue moon, and is worth a click-through.)
To be frank, Aleks Sennwald’s work is awesome.
This, I arrived at via Kyu Hwang’s blog, one strange morning. (Expect me to blog about Kyu again once his portfolio’s up and running.)
Jon Klassen’s illustrations may seem lighthearted, but they have a weightily contemplative quality to them.
Julia Sonmi Heglund’s designs have shown up all over familiar tee sources. I never considered how downright beautiful they were (and how much I like them), though, until a visit to her site.
There’s a streak of naturalism/realism in Matthew Woodson’s style that, combined with his muted colors and uncanny subjects, makes his illustrations a little bit terrifying.
As I’ve said before: Holy cow, Zach Johnson kills me.
Hey Jude by Andrew Hem. I was too charmed not to post it.
Moki, whose work I am in love with, just had a shirt printed at Threadless.
Raquel Aparicio’s clean, complex, vibrant work.
