| Clare Shields Japan Tsunami Appeal Print Posted: 23 Mar 2011 07:56 AM PDT London based digital/traditional illustrator Clare Shields' latest print is on sale now and will be raising money for the Red Cross Tsunami Appeal via the good people at Opus. Her art comprises of a whole host of mediums generally resolved in a mixture of pencil and hand drawings, painting, photography, and computer manipulation. Her meticulous approach and experimentation with said mediums has garnered attention at the Degree Art Signature Awards, where she won 'People’s Choice', and publications in International Textiles Magazine and Images 32, a book released by the Association of Illustrators. For some reason it makes me think of Twitter, no idea why. Anyway it's a limited edition Giclee print run of 30 at 16" x 12" each at £65.83 each plus Vat (for us Brits :/) and half will go to the appeal. Cute. Worthy. Accessible. |
| Posted: 23 Mar 2011 04:11 AM PDT NY-based illustrator Rich Tu is responsible for a wealth of imagery, you've probably seen his work in popular publications such as The New Yorker, The New York Times, SWINDLE Quarterly, SLAM as well as a whole pile of shows and the walls of New York Galleries. He's been commissioned by G-shock watches, Bombay Sapphire gin, created official art for Alfa Romeo and has a stack of prizes on his mantelpiece too. So what's the big fuss? A strong sense of tone and minimum colour palette, a traditional Japanese painting style, and a slap bang up-to-date sense of humour make up for some superb pieces. Rich has even produced a couple short graphic novels, which can be seen on his website at www.richtu.com where he also maintains a blog packed with eye candy, keeping his fans updated with everything he likes, sees and is currently working on. Most recently Tu has collaborated with New York Times writer Theodore Ross, creating illustration for a 4-part non-fiction series Townies, where Theodore discusses the ins and outs of his life, especially around marriage and journalism. |
