ASHLEY WOOD

I lovoe this artist, his illustration technique is a combination of traditional painting techniques, coupled with digital photography and graphic software. Take my attention the way  he uses markers making simple and fast stains full of life  with plain colors.

Don Griffin "A state of mind"

Creativity typically requires that you get comfortable with "Not knowing what you're doing." That can be a very difficult thing coming to grips with! When you are faced with the emptiness of your potential creation staring at you, and you are staring at it...that struggle to get started, but also to start with something that's unpredictable in the manifestation. It's a reoccurring event...each episode.

Dan Perjovschi

Perjovschi uses cartoons and comic illustration to comment on and satirize current social and political issues. His works vary in form from low budget photocopied pamphlets for high circulation to large scale installations.
The simplicity of his drowings and the clear messages he comunicate took my attention.

The night life of trees

Bhajju Shyam, Durga Bai and Ram Singh Urveti
http://www.kalandraka.com/blog/2011/01/05/un-libro-de-india/
Intricately drawn visions of trees fill the pages of this sumptuous book of art and folklore from the Gond tribe in central India. In Gond belief, trees stand in the middle of life, and the spirit of many things lie in them. They are busy all day, giving shade and support and shelter and food to all. Only when night falls can they find rest for themselves, and then, under quiet dark skies, the spirits that live in them are revealed. Recreated from original art by Ram Singh Urveti, Bhajju Shyam and Durga Bai, three of the finest living artists of the Gond tradition, The Night Life of Trees is a tribute to the majesty of trees, and to old ways of relating to the natural world. Each painting is accompanied by its own poetic tale, myth or lore – narrated by the artists themselves recreating the familiarity and awe with which the Gond people view the cosmos.

We´ve nuked ourselves 2053 times

Check out this video by Japanese artist Isao Hashimoto --  it’s a beautiful, time-lapse map of the 2053 confirmed nuclear explosions which have taken place between 1945 and 1998, beginning with the very first test and concluding with Pakistan’s nuclear tests in May of 1998
