March 14, 2012 | New Illustration | by Ed Tucker |
How can you not love this lady’s work? First-rate draughtsmanship, staggeringly accurate but gloriously loose at the same time. She also has a fine eye for what to leave out and when to stop drawing. Plain brilliant. Read more

March 6, 2012 | New Illustration | by Nini Baseema |
If there is such a thing as a collective unconscious world, then the octopus is spooking around in there for quite a while now. The amount of weird squid photos and drawings I have seen in the past twelve months surely is amazing. Read more
New Illustration / Teddy Roosevelt vs. Big Foot
March 3, 2012 | New Illustration | by Kevin Haugen |
What does Teddy Roosevelt, the tireless champion of the wild lands and the harbinger of railway commerce, have in common with Big Foot? Nothing, but the art of SharpWriter shows us a glimpse of another universe in which the feared stalker of the forest and stealer of campfire bites meets a Teddy with a little bit more pomp and circumstance.
New Illustration / Drawsgood illustration and design
March 2, 2012 | New Illustration | by Michael B. Myers Jr. |
I specialize in apparel design and custom illustration but I have recently started exploring pixel art and sprite animation. I am also dabbling in pop culture illustrations and designs. When I’m not doing either of those, I’m honing my concept art skills and illustrating and creating fantastical and whimsical characters and paintings.
New Illustration / Mike Rogers draws America’s nuclear power plants
March 1, 2012 | New Illustration | by Michael Amter |
75 colored pencil drawings by Mike Rogers recently exhibited at the impressive Parker’s Box Gallery in Williamsburg. The work documented all of the nuclear power plants in various locations throughout the United States. An ambitious obsession with primary color coded repetition, depicting complex landscapes in simplistic Christmas Card fashion. The individual pieces are small, delicate, romantic, yet the overwhelming numbers stagger. The controversial subject, handled in a manner few have attempted, provided quite a challenge.

New Illustration / Sarah and the Seed: a web comic by Ryan Andrews
March 1, 2012 | New Illustration | by Michael B. Myers Jr. |
I literally JUST stumbled across Ryan Andrew’s work fairly recently, and was absolutely blown away. He is an illustrator and comic book artist, who dabbles in pixel art. His amazing Star Wars pixel renditions are what initially lured me in to view the rest of his work.

New Illustration / Eunice San Miguel
February 29, 2012 | New Illustration | by Josie Portillo |
Lately, I’ve been swooning over the artwork of LA-based illustrator Eunice San Miguel. I especially love the way she manipulates traditional mediums in order to create a combination of surreal, and nostalgic imagery. All the fine details in her paintings are executed really beautifully and gives you the sense that she has a patient hand. Read more
The New York Times has just run an interesting article about artist Jorge Colombo, who created this week’s cover for The New Yorker magazine exclusively using the iPhone application Brushes: ‘Absolutely nobody can tell I am drawing’. Colombo told the Times. ‘In fact, once I was doing the drawing at some place, and my wife was around, and they asked her why did I have to work so hard? I seemed to be always on my iPhone sending messages’. Read more
So I have this recurring dream. Well, not really a dream as such. More a footnote on the thesis on life; a ‘mental meandering’ where my mind flows to a secret place which only I and Paul McCartney can access. Read more

Last weekend I went to the Golden West in Baltimore to check out the What Cheer? Brigade, a marching band from Providence. I wasn’t expecting much, but when they opened with a cover of Slayer’s Raining Blood, my knees buckled. I think I could hear a musak version of that riff, and I’d still bang my head. The rest of the band’s set was just as riotous, with people dancing so hard, you’d think we were at Mardi Gras. I haven’t had that much fun at a show in ages.

Sometime in 2010, the folks behind Dirty Dishes had the slightly silly idea of using cheeky vintage photos and putting them on dinner plates. After doing lots of research, talking to lots of people, and receiving loads of positive feedback, they wondered if this idea was so silly after all. And thus Dirty Dishes was born. Read more
