Necessity brings him here, not pleasure. What children’s drawings would look like if it were painted realistically. The Monster Engine is one of those projects that make me love the Internet for its ability to expose amazing creative talent to a worldwide audience. Illustrator Dave DeVries started with a simple question: What would a child’s drawing look like if it were painted realistically? In his own words: It began at the Jersey Shore in 1998, where my niece Jessica often filled my sketchbook with doodles. While I stared at them, I wondered if color, texture and shading could be applied for a 3D effect.
As a painter, I made cartoons look three dimensional every day for the likes of Marvel and DC comics, so why couldn’t I apply those same techniques to a kid’s drawing? The Monster Engine is the 48-page outcome from that curiosity, and it looks wonderful. I project a child’s drawing with an opaque projector, faithfully tracing each line. Below are some of my favorite illustrations from the project. Buy “The Monster Engine” on Amazon. Acollian on Behance. Works 2012 | Oliver Vernon. DRAWING 2011. Shapes of Conscious.

Height of the little friend is making the different to contact with eyes. Therefore, Little phantom has stood behind the forest.
Next Hand Drawing is pretty interesting, if you look very attentively, and then find that the ghost does not want to miss his old friends. And no one is there to give him the companion. In the sea, artist tried to figure out a Figure Drawing where a boatman is running his boat so fast because phantoms are trying to guard him from the huge wave of the sea. The stranger is walking through the road by his way and from the jungle ghosts are irritating him but stranger does not care about this big dirty things. Julie Heffernan.
From Julie Heffernan’s Constructions of Self Julie Heffernan creates sensuous figurative painting, like co-Yale MFAS, John Currin and Linda Yuskavage, but her luminous oils are patently unique among them and most working artists today. A Victorian impetus to conjoin, edging toward pastiche, creates artfully staged Surrealist environments. They avoid the mawkish or macabre by virtue of an evocative 17th century Baroque styling and the dignity with which she handles her primary subject, herself. Good construction is essential to the success of such works, built of disparate things suggesting disparate philosophies and ages.
Yet the finished product is seamless, making it easy for the viewer to willfully suspend disbelief in the face of rampant artifice. (EIL Review) Julie Heffernan at P.P.O.W Gallery Julie Heffernan at Catherine Clark Gallery Thanks to Modern Art Obsession for finding this artist! Kipling West.

Caitlin Hackett Contemporary Mythology. 50 Mind Blowing Sketches | Penny's Daybook | www.PennysDaybook.com. Critic, “I’m an artist myself and” Argument from authority – always a logical fallacy, but even worse when it’s in a subjective field where there arguably can’t be any authorities. “I hate it when people who aren’t artists assume anything someone puts out there is ‘mind-blowing’.” – incredibly condescending, don’t you think? And besides, “assumes” that it is mind-blowing? If the person who posted these pieces had his mind figuratively blown by them, then how can they not be mind-blowing? Who are you to say that they are not, in the face of reality and facts? Why aren’t the people looking at art allowed to decide if they like it or not? “There were only a select few that were actually interesting and most of them were considerably unskilled-looking.” “Just because someone draws lines in a girls hair or shows the boobs doesn’t make it amazing.”
“No, I am not bias towards any creative expression whatsoever but I don’t agree with just how ‘inspiring’ these are supposed to be.” She Wears the Night (5 pics) I've been a fan of Amy Sol's whimsical, sweet art for quite some time now, she's one of those artists who continuously amazes me with her talent. This new piece, called She Wears the Night, is a small graphite and gouache illustration she made for the Japanese street fashion themed "Sweet Streets 2" show going on now at Nucleus gallery.
I just love how the girl in her illustration has the moon on her dress and what looks like an owl on her shoulder. Ethereal and gorgeous.

10 Incredibly Talented Painters. Immense talent is exhibited in the works of 10 of our favorite artists.Alex Roulette Originally from Columbus, OH and now lives in Brooklyn, NY. Received a BFA in Painting with a minor in Graphic Design from Maryland Institute College of Art in 2009. Lu Cong Lu Cong is a contemporary American portrait artist. He is regarded by many as one of the most distinctive young artists to recently emerge from the American West. His paintings center around the faces of his carefully chosen subjects. His style pays homage to 18th Century Romantics, yet it is unmistakably conceived in and relevant to the contemporary era.
His portraits do not simply capture the physical and emotional state of the subject, rather they beckon to establish the complicated psychological interactions that ensue when one comes face to face with the sensual, the inexplicable, and the unsettling.

SANTIAGO CARUSO'S WORK | Sprayblog. Salvador Dalí Illustrates Alice in Wonderland, 1969. By Maria Popova UPDATE: At long last, a restored modern edition of this lost treasure. Also: the best illustrations from 150 years of Alice in Wonderland Last week, we marveled at Leonard Weisgard’s stunning illustrations for the first color edition of Alice in Wonderland, circa 1949. But it turns out they might not be the most culturally intriguing. Exactly two decades later, a collaboration of epic proportion took place as the Lewis Carroll classic was illustrated by none other than Salvador Dalí (May 11, 1904–January 23, 1989).
(And let’s not forget what a soft spot I have for obscure children’s illustration by famous artists.) Published by New York’s Maecenas Press-Random House in 1969 and distributed as their book of the month, the volume went on to become one of the most sought-after Dalí suites of all time.
