Katie Scott’s artworks are like intricate observations and studies of a world that we kind of know, but ourselves aren’t really a part of and that’s really what an artist and illustrator is, right? We are observers who document worlds, people, characters, and moments that would normally go unseen.

IN LOVE with Brazilian artist Camila do Rosario’s Moleskine set. It’s a super-awesome-beautiful reminder to pick up my own neglected sketchbook. They are an artist’s best friend and I’ve definitely been avoiding a good long conversation on paper. My sketchbook knows all of my secrets and fears and loves me anyway.

Supakitch + Koralie are back (previously posted here) with a new video made for the marker brand Posca. This time around they discuss about their individual creative process’ which again, is inspiring and amazing.
I’m partial to Koralie’s process which combines various materials and techniques (pen, ink, paint, digital, collage) in order to get one harmonious product. It’s a nice metaphor for living. They have me convinced art is a lifestyle worth pursuing.

Here’s some striking work from recent British art school graduate Rui Ribeiro. I love black and white images with a specific placing of color. The combination is sophisticated, dramatic, and beautiful. These are just a little sample of his portfolio. I didn’t even post his graphic design or photography work; which is stellar if you were wondering.

Ack! I HEART the work of Kate Kosek, a recent painting grad from SUNY New Paltz (State University of New York). Now, I know she’s a painter, but I really hope this girl goes into textile design. I want to wear her artwork right now. Like right now. I’m selfish. I want to snuggle under it. I want to put things in it and carry it around. I want to wash my face with it. I want to wrap it around my neck. Well, you get the idea.
So, does anyone know someone who knows somebody in the field that would forward her site for me?
Ok, thanks.

I was pleasantly surprised when I discovered that the artist Casey Weldon, who is behind these paintings is a dude. Why? It wasn’t just the ambiguity of his name. I feel and I understand the emotions of what his female subjects are going through because at some point in my life, I’ve felt that way too. I ignorantly assumed that only a female would understand and be able to put those emotions into a tangible painting.
I was soooo wrong. I believe I’m right however when I say Casey is an amazing artist and painter. Support him please.

I know, this is a huge post of artwork from Texas based artist Angela Fox. It’s so large because I wanted to show her two extreme artwork styles. Also, I believe she’s making important artwork.
What is interesting is both of Angela’s styles have underlying themes of tribe, community, and primal instincts but where her collage work seems to be grounded in traditional ideals of women, fashion and beauty, her paintings offer a different take on females, and the words I might be searching for here are aggressive indulgence.
Interesting. Very interesting.

The artwork of Sam Wolfe Connelly is LEGIT. I beg, please take the time to soak in this artwork. Then check out his blog where he shares his process. I LOVE when artists do that.

I am terrible at editing myself. I’m a fan of piling on details, layers in my own artwork, and extra words in my posts. So I will just shut up so we can take in the beautiful simplicity of Spanish illustrator Blanca Gomez.
No more, no less, just exactly what needs to be expressed.

Julian Callos (which by the way, I don’t think Pikaland has officially posted about his art so that needs to be fixed) just put on his Society6 a bunch of Spirit Animal sculptures he made for his friends for Christmas.
First of all, I love a good Spirit Animal reference. Secondly, his tribe of friends is pretty big so you have to check out the whole gang of lively, animated, and adorable sculptures here. Third, how awesome is it that a group that large likes Spirit Animals?
