As soon as I laid my eyes on the work of Alice Gabb, I instantly got the impression that they were inspired by some level of pretentious, English-European culture. Very fun and humorous in nature, Alice dabbles with a number of different layers and textures, incorporating crown jewels, letter writing and obsolete language, which together, [...]

Although not a particularly nature-craving person myself, these photos do a wonderful job in sparking the tree-loving side in me. Check out some more [...]

Sketchbooks are a wonderful thing. Whether they’re used to doodle in when bored during class, or as a documentary device used to store photos and memorabilia from that trip you recently took to Italy, they’re always a nice inside look into the life of someone you may or may not know. Craig Atkinson – whom [...]

If you’re feeling depressed or lonely, I suggest you move on to another one of my posts, as Finnish photographer, Ville Varumo, creates a slew of dark, isolated images that puts your life into an uncomfortable perspective. He does all of this without even showing anything remotely melancholic. Instead, by using the frame to its [...]

These fun, satirical doodles by Daniel Cantrell from England look like they belong on the chest of a screen printed t-shirt à la Urban Outfitters. Displaying a great level of comfort with geometry and line work, Daniel intricately experiments with the blending of colors and patterns. To read more about Daniel and his work, click [...]

These brightly lit, cool-toned images come from Chilean photographer, Alvaro Puentes. Although only shooting the ordinary, he miraculously transforms these otherwise dull scenes into an almost fabricated fairly tale of faux surroundings – damn that was a lot of f”s. Check out some of Alvaro’s other photos here.

Below you’ll find the resulting drawings of one of William Lamson’s nature-powered machines. Made out of a water-filled plastic bottle, some string and scrap wood, William uses wind to power and fly a kite, which subsequently pulls and drops a marking device – I’m not sure as to whether it’s charcoal or marker – leaving [...]

Below you’ll find the work of Australian photographer, Luke Byrne. His warming pallet and slightly sun-burnt colors make for a visually engaging experience. Luke’s subject matter varies, but in general, I’d say he has a very documentative style. Luke updates is Flickr quite frequently, so give the man from down unda’ some love by going [...]

Here’s some work by Spanish photographer, Salva López. Although void of clutter and action, his photos seem to all have something worth looking at. His soft, central-framed images are multi-mattered and offer a predominant, reoccurring theme that is: backing the focus points with nature/worldly-based surroundings. Salva also has some wonderful design and illustration work over [...]
