Molly Crabapple


I saw this piece at Gallery 5. I believe it was the only piece by Molly Crabapple there. My eye really traveled when I looked at it.

Greg Garza


He is such a great illustrator. This peice is titled 'Stuck in the wall', he painted it with Painter9. I absolutely love the transition from 2D to 3D with one digital medium.

Sterling Clinton Hundley




I went to go see local Hundley's work at Ghostprint Gallery 220 West Broad Street on first friday (Sep. 5)
It was great to see his work, I only wish I would've brought my camera, that is if cameras were allowed.
He's great. He paints tiny little abstract paintings. A ton of them. And then arranges them to form a single representational painting.
I was even more happy to find his blogspot with him talking about his process and the meaning of his works.








Basia Konczarek


Another Polish illustrator.

Ryohei Hase




A freelance illustrator based in Tokyo Japan.


He graduated the Tama Art University in Tokyo Japan and has worked for Bandai Namco games.

He's done a series of pieces about chaotic conflict with animal-headed humans and full animals. I love his work because it is frightening. It is phychologically very scary. Even though there are lots of animals in his work, they are more about torment inside the mind

Jakub Kujawa



Jakub Kujawa jakub kujawa! jakub kujawa! I wish I could post every picture he has ever created.


Jakub is a brilliant painter/illustrator from Poland.

His illustrations are mostly digital art scifi or fantasy.

He does very loose oil paintings of portraits, hands, feet, bodies with a strong emotion running through.




His oil is so loose that it almost looks like the painting cannot hold itself togther.
And his painting style suits the cold, clamy dispair
this oil sketch to the right, 'Marta sketch'.
I love how he paints with cool grays, blue, purple, pink
while still making the skin very flesh like.

Another thing he likes to do is extreme poses that distort the body. Like hands pressing hard against the face, hands clasping each other behind the back and all kinds of scrunched up positions.

His paintings are not comforing or plesent, but they are raw. raw emotion, raw oil. It sounds cliche, but I could look at them for hours.

Paolo Domeniconi


Fratello Krishna - Perle Indiane - Satyagraha Onlus








Storie dei cieli del mondo.


Paolo Domeniconi is an Italian illustrator. But beyond that, I do not know much about him, because his website is written in italian.
All I know is that I deeply appriciate his style in drawing people, his bright contrasting hues, and his really gorgeous fuzziness to his illustrations.

He paints digitally, but imitates real canvas.
