Sophie Stubbs - Collages

By Stoffb, September 30th, 2009

Various collages made of celebrities by Sophie Stubbs, a postgraduate Fine Art student from Glasgow University Sophie’s collage section “people” is quite funny and I like how she mixes the shape of the lips and the nose. The amusing and entertaining aspect was to spend some time trying to find out which people were hidding behind these collages. I’m not quite sure but from top to bottom I would have said: Lily Allen, Megan Fox?? (tricky with just the eyes to recognise) and Paris Hilton. What do you think? Sophie, if you ever read this post would you be able to give us the answer?

Although the people section is interesting, the abstract section is a bit too abstract in my view but I guess it never hurts to explore different horizons.

Grzegorz Domaradzki aka Gabz

By Stoffb, September 29th, 2009

gabz-omegagabz-wavingabz-yakuza

Astonishing variety of illustrations by Polish illustrator Grzegorz Domaradzki aka Gabz. From the first few clicks I had around his website, I thought Gabz’s illustrations were all dark and a tad frightening but he actually produces some really nice, inviting, colourful and friendly pieces. Gabz doesn’t seem to struggle in the slightest to change style and techniques. From Japanese tattoo style, dark and death illustrations to festive and colourful artworks, Gabz’s wide skills set seems to fit any subject…

Chris Fleming - Illustrations

By Stoffb, September 28th, 2009

I ran through my old CDs the other day and found Infinity Land by Biffy Clyro which I quite like (although their first album is by far the best but it’s not really the point here) and hadn’t listen to in ages. Whilst listening to it, I looked at the album cover that I’ve always found strangely and scarily attractive. I remember I had a massive poster of the CD cover in my house when I was a student and it was the “masterpiece” of our shared living room at the time. Anyway, I tried to find out a bit more about Chris Fleming, the artist behind the cover. Unfortunately, I couldn’t seem to find much more than what seems to be an old student portfolio still hosted on Glasgow University website. Chris’s illustrations that are up there are really interesting though. I dont know if he’s still doing illustration nowadays or if he adopted a pseudo but I can’t find more about him. I would really appreciate any input if you’ve ever heard about him or his work… Thanks

Serge Birault - Digital Art

By Stoffb, September 23rd, 2009

sergebirault-chocolatesergebirault-pamela-bouguereausergebirault-welcome-to-bali

Simply astonishing illustrations by French digital artist Serge Birault. I was just speechless in front of his latest pieces and impressed by the level of details, the control of the lights and the look and feel of the textures. I even like the small imperfections especially on his models breasts proportions and angles.

Seb Lester - Typography

By Stoffb, September 22nd, 2009

seblester-indelicateseblester-believe_detail1seb-lester-homesweethome

I wrote at the beginning of the month a post about Alison Carmichael and one of the poster she is selling on her website. In this post was also mentioned a similar work of another UK illustrator: Seb Lester. Well, that’s a sample of his work! Seb Lester is a London based graphic designer with a good deal of skills in typography and calligraphy and a strong passion for lettering. He’s been working on letterings for GQ Magazine, The New York Times and has been featured in different specialist mags like  Computer Arts and Creative Review… I’m a bit gutted because Sebastian had an exhibition in Electrik Sheep (Newcastle art gallery) end of July and I didn’t go…

Nicholas Sheehy - Illustrations

By Stoffb, September 16th, 2009
Categories: Design, Illustration

nicholassheehynicholassheehy-illustrationnicholassheehy-spacemennicholassheehy-the-offering

I can’t really put my feelings into words, the best way is probably to simply describe what happened. I opened Nicholas Sheehy’s website, I straight away liked the thumbnails. I clicked on the thumbnails and then I loved his illustrations. Good enough an explanation? Seriously now, I like the fact it looks simple and neat but there is still a good deal of work on his illustrations (especially on the last one…). It’s a bit funky, funny, different, colourful. His illustrations look like it’s a mix of the technical drawing skills of an adult and the limitless creativity and sensibility of a child.

John Pascarelli - Photography

By Stoffb, September 15th, 2009

john-pascarelli-abstract-photography3john-pascarelli-long-exposure-photographyjohn-pascarelli-abstract-photography

Surprising photographs by John Pascarelli who seems to be a versatile artist. As you can see on John’s website, he’s a photographer, a painter and a musician. His abstract photography section (redirecting to Flickr) is surprisingly interesting. I’m not a big fan of the colours and somehow the overall quality in his pictures but I like what he manages to catch in terms of textures, reflections, subjects, angles… There is often in his pictures a little something that makes my eye stop for a second to understand what’s happening…
