I’m compelled by the delicate work of Natasha Newton, a full time artist and a freelance illustrator from England. See her shop for cards, prints and originals –- I love her birds the most.

Darren Song puts me to shame. As if I don’t feel bad already about my sewing capabilities – just look at his amazing embroidered animal silhouettes.

Since graduating art school three years ago, I’ve been following the artwork of children’s book illustrator Kelly Murphy. I really would like to illustrate children’s books but I have problems drawing people. Her work has taught me to let go of the confining concepts of how human anatomy “should” look. Murphy’s work has inspired me to let the natural way I create people and the emotion/mood involved come through my artwork.

So, thanks for that Kelly [and to the internet for making it all possible]!

What artist(s) have you been following that has influenced your artwork?
