These whimsical doodles will make you smile
Contributor
Funny how we’ve seen a number of witty visuals by Malaysian illustrator and graphic designer ilovedoodle or Lim Heng Swee everywhere — such as the one of the Lego block refusing to let go, the drum-beating heart, and the penguin changing into a can, to name a few — but never realized he was the [...]

Whimsical science illustrations by Katie Scott
Contributor
I recognized Katie Scott’s illustration style from the album cover she did for The Bombay Bicycle Club. Her style is a whimsical blend of anatomically correct biology drawings, Middle-Eastern-style paisley patterns, and pure surrealism. As unnerving as that combination should be, Scott somehow pulls it off with ease and wit.

I recently stumbled across the work of Riccardo Guasto. He is a talented artist from Italy who also goes by the pseudonym, RIK. His works seem inspired by modernist painters, an era in art which I love, hence my obsession. If I had the money, I would love to empty his online shop and plaster [...]

Some of our past Favourites
Colourful Illustrations by Raphael Urwiller
Contributor
I love the bright blocks of colour in these illustrations by Raphael Urwiller. The French artist relies on the tradition of screen-printing art, but takes it to a whole new level of cool. And he doesn’t keep any secrets to himself. Find all of his original sketches with his final pieces to understand the process.

New illustrations by Australian artist Liz Anelli
Contributor
While Liz Anelli’s illustrations have amused and delighted kids, they’ve also provided a useful public service. Making cartographers feel as creative as a block of discount cheddar, her hand-drawn street guides are both fun and practical. Let’s hope Google Maps commissions a re-design.

Aditi Babel has many creative talents, illustration being one of them. Working as an independent book artist in Udaipur, India, Babel recently designed her cousin’s wedding invitations, which I loved so much I’m going to have framed.

The Waste Land, for babies
Contributor
When T.S. Eliot penned ‘April is the cruellest month’ in his poem The Waste Land, he might or might not have been prophetic about London-based Marna Gilligan’s kiddy picture book adaptation of the masterpiece dubbed The Waste Land For Babies. Gilligan first created the book complete with simplified lines and watercolor illustrations as a first-Christmas [...]

Mental map: The mental landscape as a map
Contributor
Writer-illustrator Anne Emond, who is based in Brooklyn, did this amazing Mental Map comic that really hits it right home. Who hasn’t overstayed their time at the I-Spend-Too-Much-Time-Online Falls, the Mountain Range of Impotent Rage or the Waves of Depression? Good thing there’s the River of Pleasure in the Small Things too.

Miami-based artist Peter Patrick Barreda, who draws these amazing mandalas in pen and ink on acid-free paper, is ‘fascinated by origins and causes, and the deeply-hidden reasons behind everything’. His works are astoundingly detailed eye-candy. His Okshirahm Sky Mandala is especially gorgeous.
