Andy Denzler's paintings
At first, they look like corrupt high resolution photographs, damaged by a bad Internet connection. Then you find out that the author, Andy Denzler, is an expressionist painter who only works with canvas, oil and acrylic. For over 10 years, Andy's style had been abstract, with vague references to nature. Then, the shades of cinema and photo film appeared on his palette of colours. Denzler thus tried to adapt his abstract vocabulary to a figurative, wild and stratified language.Ronald Searle Art Work - Lithographs and original drawings and paintings by Ronald Searle

Yuki Matsueda
‘While most designers are busying adding more and more elements into their artworks, Japan-based Yuki Matsueda has, however, managed to let some elements escape from his art pieces. The result seems quite amazing… A vivid 3D image is successfully created and all the elements are believed to be more shocking than those stay still on paper.’
