Introducing 2 incredible new limited edition prints from artist/illustrator extraordinaire, Sarah Beetson, signed and hand-screened (with 20+ colors, to boot!). What we love most about Sarah Beetson is her exploration of body images and perversities in pop culture, all shown in an outwardly playful and dynamic explosion of color. We’re thrilled to have snagged a handful of these signed limited edition prints for our own Lost at E Minor Shop.

A cartoonist for many well-known magazines, Peter Arkle has got some witty stuff. His cartoons are simple enough to easily get, but also speak deeply about society and cultural views. When he talks about his art, he says that he likes to mix writing with art in order to “cheat” into some good material. Very talented and original, his art will probably make you smile. I especially like the jokes around hipster cartoons.

Sheffield street artist Phlegm is at it again. His long-legged, spidery creatures are stalking the streets and hitch hiking right before your eyes. These fantastic black and white creatures are well placed to interact with their environment. and posses a well though out quality. I love their hand drawn feel. And guess what? Phlegm is releasing his book soon, so check his blog for updates.

Dice Tsutsumi, of Pixar and Gerald Guerlais, was able to bring more than 70 artists together for this Sketch Travel project. The only requirement was to hand-deliver the sketchbook to a fellow artist. The project will culminate in an auction of the original book and the proceeds will be donated to the international literacy non-profit, Room to Read. It’s inspiring to see artists pull together for such a humanitarian endeavor.

Garth is an artist residing in a little village in southern France. A self-admitted lover of the absurd, the profound, the banal and the beautiful, Garth’s drawings and illustrations are brilliantly simplistic but never boring, whimsical and often tongue-in-cheek. In Garth’s words: ‘The artist is a magician, the paint brush a wand’. The world according to Garth is indeed a magical place: an original wonderland where ideas, characters and thoughts fall down the rabbit hole and come to life.

There can be few greater draughtsmen than Matthew Cook. He first came to my attention when I saw him give a talk about his work as the Times’ war artist in Iraq – stunning drawings and amazing stories. He also does some rather fine illustrated maps.

If you’re lost in London, this guy might just be able to help you. Mike Hall is an illustrator specialising in making maps of the London boroughs. Exquisitely hand-drawn, they are beautifully coloured and each is presented with its own distinctive decorations specific to that particular area.

I’m excited to have recently discovered Lwnski. The Melbourne-based illustrator and I are paired up in an upcoming exhibition titled True Self. His bold use of colour, mixed with typography and loose lines, just works. It’s well worth a look at his band posters, too. So cool.

The doodles created by Gracki are casually done, sometimes carefully thought out stories, showing the ongoing adventures of her own characters. Other times, they are the product of daydreams, wondering what would happen if Rhinos tried to play soccer or how a giraffe would be treated at an amusement park. 

They could be described as cute, but not in a way that you would describe a somewhat foolish action of a child, or seemingly unsensible action of a small animal. So they are cute, but they are also beautiful. They combine a bright, childlike imagination with a much more mature wit. And they are done with a visual cohesiveness and open narrative that has created a style and story of its own, always leaving you wanting to see the next one.

Influenced by the subtle use of symbols, I use the art of printmaking to convey subconscious imagery through the form of multiples. Pulling inspiration from Jungian psychology and mythology, my art presents iconic visuals shrouded in simplistic mystery.

Sergio Mora is probably one of my favorite artists ever. I just can’t get enough of looking at his adorable tattoo series. And his illustrations and paintings are absolutely captivating. I love the humor and the surrealism in his pieces. Just when I think he couldn’t get better, he comes up with a new piece that totally blows my mind.

Tali Gal-On is a good friend of my band Polo Club and a true talent. She has the most amazing voice, and has recorded a heap of stuff for us over the past year. She also does the coolest animations and design. All the Milk and Cookies stuff is for sale. I just love the simplicity of Tali’s illustrations.

Lars Henkel has received awards and recognition from around the world for his vintage inspired ink and digital illustrations with a ghostly and ethereal look. Each illustration seems to be a glimpse through the fog or a clue to a mysterious past. This mysterious quality keeps me coming back for more, hoping to find the answers, but knowing the mystery is the answer itself.

In his comics and illustrations Jess Worby draws connections between the small moments of absurdity in everyday life and the potential they hold for deeper meaning. In his Crowds drawings, soldiers and businessmen fill the space up to the horizon and give in to anarchic impulses. His comic, A Walk In the Park, plays with the conventions of a classic self discovery narrative in a way that both celebrates and makes light of that tradition.

I’m an illustrator and artist from Helsinki, Finland. I spend my days creating images of disturbingly happy antropomorphic creatures from the yesteryear of alternate reality lives. Lately, I’ve been having a blast illustrating books, magazines and record covers.

I found the illustrations of Fabian Ciraolo whilst trawling through some Tumblr site. I stuck up his Dorothy and Salvador above my desk and every creative that has come to chat to me stops and says out loud ‘Wow, who did THAT?’ And then I tell them, Fabian Ciraolo. So now I’m telling you. Who else would be mashing up pop culture references, like what looks like Lana Del Rey’s body with Judy Garland as Dorothy and Salvador Dali in a Vampire Weekend tee? I love it.

Last year I worked on a personal project called The AlleyCats. Each cat character is based on a particular type of creative person that I have been inspired by in my career. Due to popular demand, the six most popular characters are now available as art prints.

Take note of the depth in these recent drawings and paintings by James Jean; a Taiwanese-American artist who never ceases to amaze me. If you’re intrigued, too, check out Jean’s blog, Process Recess, where he sometimes likes to display his illustration process by showing initial sketches and the final colouring.

There are pin-up calendars, and then there are pin-up calendars filled with chocolate. From Danish design studio, Bessermachen, come these limited edition 1950s-inspired vintage belles, adorning tantalizing tins of Brandhouse chocolates.

Aptly titled, Chocolates with Attitude, this year’s collection is the latest in Brandhouse’s always-creative annual series. And while the old-school illustrations are enticing in their own right, the sweets inside certainly tempt in flavors like lavender and white chocolate; black pepper and balsamic with dark chocolate; and soft caramel with milk and vanilla. Food porn, indeed.
