Gary Venn
Posted by Amy on Thursday May 19, 2011
Gary Venn is an illustrator based in New Zealand who is working on his first childrens book. He has been shortlisted for a NZ Illustrators prize – the Storylines Gavin Bishop Illustration Award (2010) and is regularly commissioned for magazines. His style is primarily made up of digital collages, but I do like the hand-drawn lines that are evident in his earlier works as well.

Pretty, quirky collage pieces and illustrations by Saga Bergebo (see her shop here), a graphic design and illustration student in Malmö, Sweden. I love that they’re playful and fun, subtle yet focused, and plenty of patterns strewn about. That’s what I love about Swedish artists – they make everything look so… Swedish, if you know what I mean.
(I’m lacking in the vocabulary department today, so if you have other words to describe them by all means, please share them with me in the comments section!)

Sounds like a great plan already.

I know, this is a huge post of artwork from Texas based artist Angela Fox. It’s so large because I wanted to show her two extreme artwork styles. Also, I believe she’s making important artwork.
What is interesting is both of Angela’s styles have underlying themes of tribe, community, and primal instincts but where her collage work seems to be grounded in traditional ideals of women, fashion and beauty, her paintings offer a different take on females, and the words I might be searching for here are aggressive indulgence.
Interesting. Very interesting.
