Beautiful Illustration Artists!

Often my friends will posts links on my wall about artists they think I would be interested in.
I am suppose to post tomarrow, but I thought I would provide an small extra post this week, due to the fact that my previous was posted so late.



This illustrator is Yu Cheng Hong. I love his cyber punk/fantasy art style. He uses detail for characterization, and is more about the figure than creating a scene. Thats something i really appreciate. But it always makes me sad that when I find an artist that draws seductive, sexualized women that its almost always a man. What do you call the male gaze if its done by a woman?

Another Artist that a friend shared with me is Birgit Amadori.



She makes the cloth drawings/collages that focus on pattern and silhouette. Ive thought of doing something similar with decorative papers but havent gotten around to dedicating myself to it yet. To me this is a cross between Art Nouveau, Kara Walker, and Japanese Noh Theatre.

I hope you enjoy these artists as much as I do!
