Freditor is away at space camp this week so no one wants to do any work. Since I’m the responsible one, I figured I might as well make a minor effort. Coming up – flybys! I’ll be sharing with you a bunch of my favourite artists, little yummy taste testers of goodness. Maybe also some stuff from submissions that I haven’t looked at yet.
Brandon Liao
We’re not biased about concept art, where did you get that idea? Still…just look at it, Brandon Liao is a treat for the eyes. I just cannot get enough of these brush strokes. His Blogspot is bursting with so much concepty goodness that I could trawl through it for hours. The transition from sleek to restraint in his pieces puts the focus on all those sexy elements of his character designs. He also has this habit of sticking sci-fi elements into pretty much everything, which is EVEN BETTER.
Hyoung Hwan Kim
Sweet sepia goodness from Hyoung Hwan Kim, and I’m not sure why I picked his blurriest image but there’s something lazily beautiful about his teaser. With unassuming brush strokes, Kim managed to paint a warm afternoon, the scent of flowers breezing in from outside, the tactile feeling of fabric as you lounge after a nap. I just feel decadent and sleepy when I appreciate this image. Whereas this is my personal favourite, I think even a quick perusal of his gallery may give you something different to store away in your imagination. He has many works using a range of techniques, but all of them are delightful.
Silvia Pelissero
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous traditional art from Silvia Pelissero, also known as Agnes Cecile. A totally warring mix of black and white with a starry trail of blushing pastels makes this artist’s work bloom out across the paper. Highly stylised and more than a little evocative, Silvia’s gallery is like falling into a dream.
