Brutally honest illustrations by Lyvia Aylward-Davies
Contributor
These quirky little prints by Lyvia Aylward-Davies are just thing to frame or gift to your bestie. What says I love you like a cute, hand-drawn pigeon proudly proclaiming that it will shit on everything you love? Her illustrations are hilarious in a tongue-in-cheek manner.

Portraits of celebrities by Carmine Bellucci
Reader Find
To do a portrait of a person is to dig deep into his or her soul, to understand what they do and why they do it, and then make it visible. When this person is a celebrity, the job is harder because they’ve already gone through many interpretations. Still, you have to find something new. [...]

Some of our past Favourites
Stunning illustrations in a moleskin notebook by Marco Mazzoni
Reader Find
What Marco Mazzoni can do with coloured pencils on a moleskine sketchbook is pretty amazing. The Modenese artist has a taste for delicate, very detailed renders and intricate compositions of small animals and mystical women. In his women portrait series, he chooses not to paint the eyes, which he sees as a distraction, thus infusing [...]

I found these beautiful illustrations by Norma Nardi in my home city of Bolzano. I love her technique, which hints to me of a playful and spontaneous approach to drawing. It’s reminiscent of the dirty hands of children when they experiment with paper and colors without fear.

This is the comic book biography of Hunter S Thompson, father of Gonzo Journalism. This is the story of a man respected as a professional bum, thief, liar, addict, and tough-as-nails journalist.

Brazilian illustrator Matheus Lopes
Reader Find
Matheus Lopes is an illustrator/designer from Brazil who embraces mixed media and digital techniques to create vibrant artworks.

China vs Chinatown
Contributor
With her minimalistic China vs Chinatown split-panel graphic series, New York-based art director Mengwen Xiang views Chinatown as a stereotype of China, and contrasts the two against each other. It’s brilliant, subtle, wicked and makes for a quick educational crash course about the world’s most populated country.
