laolu senbanjo


laolu senbanjo does some great work done directly onto bodies but as those bodies tend to be young women here's something else. graphic, arresting designs...

lanfranco quadrio


it'll maybe be just one image that catches your eye with lanfranco quadrio but then you go on his website and it's like a whole world opening up. i particularly like the dragonflies. obviously.....

eric lacombe


uncompromising portraiture is how i'd describe the images of eric lacombe. i like the darkness but also that classical feel about them. not comfortable but worth a look

lesley oldaker


abstract urban figurative art. niche but you've got to love that. intially i was struck by the presence of lesley oldaker's work but looking at it closer i'm loving the textures

yolande biver


there's been nothing remotely figurative on here for a while and i think sculpture's been neglected a bit generally. so let's fix that with the rather lovely work of yolande biver

nicolas de stael


i keep coming back to this image by nicolas de stael. worth checking out more but this one does appear to contrast with much of his other work in terms of style. check him out on wikipedia but be warned it's not a cheery story

art hansen


art hansen seems to have spent most of his time making pictures of vashon island. check out the link and you won't regret it - a plethora of style and media, deftness of touch and beautiful use of colour. sublime!

shane mcadams


shane mcadams describes his first preoccupation as landscape. what i like is not only his use of ballpoint pen but his integration with other media - interesting - check him out

eduardo chillida

eduardo chillida is better known for sculpture but i was really taken by this image. totally worth a proper google and a good browse.

anca gray


on her blog as a suggestion to get her head straight anca gray suggest painting everything white. i can't argue with that. i'm intending coming back to spend more time with her images a s there's some really top mark making going on with her and it rewards closer attention

zhang zhaohui


i would've loved to have seen a video of zhang zhaohui putting his inks down. as it is it remains a mystery. i would travel some distance to see these in the flesh!

gunnar norrman


it takes a bit of a search to find out more about gunnar norrman than is on his (very short) wikipedia page. do an image search instead and just ease yourself into his work instead. it's a treat....
