Friday evening inspiration!

Its Friday night, the studio is empty, I have a million and one places to be but my mind is crazily racing about ideas for a new magazine ad Im working on. I desperately want to do something a little different and quirky but I doubt the client will! I found these illustrations by Doug Alves...aren't they beautiful! His work has reminded there is hope and maybe, just maybe I can persuade my client to step a little out of her comfort zone..watch this space!
Check out Doug's website http://www.nacionale.cc/ which has some really interesting pieces on there and a really nice site too.

Stephane Tartelin

Renokim

The young artist behind this stunning pic is Minjae Lee. He is only 19 and from South Korea but his work is very striking and powerful. I would love to see and find out more about him! His portfolio can be seen at http://renokim.com  Check it out and see what you think!

Nikki Farquharson

I love these mixed media pieces...they remind me of quirky sketchbook style doodles (but obviously a little nicer).
