Loving these wall art by CBLV – a collective that consists of artists Frida, Riote & Apft. I can’t seem to find much information about them at the moment, so I’d be thrilled if there’s more to go on! But in the meantime, here’s their Flickr stream for more photos, projects and illustration.

I’m ending the week with Naomi Elliott – an illustrator from the UK. I love that she explores various textures with pencil, and as well, her restrained use of color adds much interest to her illustrations. She has a print series on chairs that she’d like to own up on her Etsy shop as well!

Have a great weekend folks! I’ll be busy running around as I prepare for my upcoming wedding next week, so posts might be a little scattered in between!

Fenómeno, from Maria Herreros

The first reaction I had when I started browsing “Fenómeno” in the library was: “I want to tattoo again”. I identified myself immediately when I started reading it. I saw that Maria Herreros was there. She seemed cool and happy. Behind her, some guys where mounting a small exhibition with some of the drawings from the book. I bought it and I asked at the counter “do you think she will sign the books?” and the lady said “no”. So I smoked a cigarette outside, I got my crocodile and went back home.

For Maria Herreros everyone is bizarre, some people just know how to hide better. I understand that. : )
