ZUTTO
This is a special post. Not only the post has triple of the same number, this post marks my pondering questions about my illustration style. I was looking at some tee shirts designs and vector art. The thing is, I do appreciate vector art but I am not that big of a fan for clean vector style. I love rugged, edgy, rough looking illustrations that plays with line texture and strokes. The way I colour is also different. I dont do much gradients but I like combining flat colours with different hues and tones to make it more 3D.


One fine example of a vector art illustration who masters gradient is Zutto. What a cute Russian name!! I admire her capability to create characters that appears strong and soft and so real at the same time. The Owls she did were AMAZING!! cant get enough of those mysterious creatures!

ELEANOR WOOD
Love the surrealist touch in her collage artworks. Tasty graphic elements and subjects. I feel so calm and at ease with the great choice of colour palatte. Reminds me a little of Dadaism where collages techniques are being developed from the cubist movement in the early 1920s! See Hanna Hoch's work below...Lovely lovely inspiration!
