Ooli is an illustrator/artist from Saint Petersburg, Russia. The delicate transparencies in her watercolor paintings are really a thing of beauty. Chilly, quiet, calm, I feel she’s taken us to a mythological world where snow is about to fall.

An idea, open for discussion, presented here in visual form from Holiday Matinee. So…what are your opinions on stealing, or the professional person’s term: appropriating?

I love everything there is to know about Oppy (or that I found out on the internetz in a very professional search). For instance, I’m in love with her bold lines and color palette which shows her fearlessness to express. I also love how she describes herself as “studying illustration in Melbourne from instinct” showing her commitment to creating with a true degree, and from her side project The Scribble Project where she inspires and encourages other artists to draw in online initiated ‘zine projects. Hello Oppy!

Art is meant to fill the void when words are not enough express an idea. I sure do admire however, when artists merge the two forms of communication, such as Spainish illustrator Pablo Ientile. Letters can become a scarf, or part of the hair…the important thing being is that they are not put in a box.

Kate Bingaman-Burt is illustrating mixtapes! I’ll let her explain:
“It is official. Mixtapes are almost impossible to find in the wild. Big thrift stores don’t carry them, small thrift stores sometimes have them, but not often. People are more likely to throw away or keep a mixtape instead of donating them to their local thrift store. Even when you donate to the goodwill they throw them away.
So, I want to draw your mixtapes. I want your sad songs, your love jams, your sing at the top of your lungs car tunes, your break-up tape, your make-up tape and your BFF-4evah cassette.”
Check out the set here and send her a photo of your best mix!

Mike Lay may create wild imagery, but he deserves your friendship. Support his artwork, please.

“I’m not an artist, a painter, a singer, a photographer, a poet, a human, a child, a man, a woman, a cat, animal, mineral, vegetable, a ghost or a dream. I’m not nothing of this and I am all.”
-Yoda Navarette (Lady Orlando)

Andrea Musso’s Music Moleskine is amazing. What a cool way to capture a moment. It’s such a sweet little valuable record rather than trying to sneak a camera past security, or snapping a fuzzy blur of an image off your phone. No one will ever suspect you pulling out a sketchbook and pen at a Lady GaGa concert.

I think that when you’re young you either:
a. know what you want to be when you grow up
b. have various options of what you want to be when you grow up
c. have no clue
I was a c.
Thank goodness Christine Young decided to grow up to be an illustrator! What did you want to be when you were a little one?
