Erin Flannery
Stumbling upon great artists is like a mini holiday for the mind. And if you are in need of a hypnotic holiday away from the day-to-day, I would encourage you to sit with a cup of Rhubarb and Apple tea and stare at Erin Flannery’s work for as long as you need for your heart and mind to feel full again.
Flannery is a self-taught artist and lover of all things black, white, weird, wonderful and fashion-related. Flannery’s art is flavoured with her daily observations of the fashion world, and she admits to being highly amused by the latest ‘killer trends’, ‘killer heels’ and flashy brand names.
In the words of Flannery: ‘I love to think of my style as illustration, street art and a hint of hand-stitching all meeting each other in a dark but lovely alleyway, getting on really well, and deciding to throw themselves all over a raw-linen canvas’.
Flannery’s first solo show in August this year was sold-out before the doors even opened, so I think we can safely say we’re going to be seeing the observations of Erin Flannery for some time to come.

The detail involved in Miso’s work really needs to be seen to be believed. I saw some of her latest work which involves hand-cut and pin pricked images of animals and cityscapes, and literally sat in awe at the beauty and was totally perplexed at the time and patience it would have taken to create these pieces. Often using white on white, or black on white, it re-iterated to me that sometimes in a world full of colour, there is a still a place for just white. Read more

The influences of Charles Burns, Spumco, and even Gary Larson are apparent in Josh J. Holinaty’s demented drawings and comics. I especially love the multi-appendaged Yeti forest monster thing.
A few years ago, I discovered Ricardo Cavolo’s work by chance and I bought two of his prints. Now I’m so happy to see his great success as an illustrator and artist. And no wonder. His art is absolutely brilliant. Read more

If Pharrell’s calling these guys ‘geniuses’, you’d better watch out! Chester French are Ivy League prep boys from Massachusetts who have mastered an interesting Beatlesque sound tinged with Motown influences. When, in May 2007, the duo — D.A. and Max — completed their recording and their degrees (in African American Studies and Social Anthropology respectively), they were snapped up by Pharrell Williams’ label Star Trak.
