We’ve been on the hunt for our favorite creations again, so let’s get stuck into this month’s edition!
Jac Bezer | 3 Dimensional Woman
Our first choice for this month’s feature is Jac Bezer’s illustration, chosen for its emotional depth captured through minimalism and color. We were drawn to the way Bezer conveyed a strong, silent narrative with just a few bold strokes and a striking color palette.
Edapollo | Abstract Collection #09
Digital artist Edapollo blends classical beauty with a modern, digital aesthetic in this beautiful work of art. We thought the juxtaposition of the serene sculpture with a classical face against a backdrop of lush, almost glitch-like nature added a super cool contrast. The warm coral and cool teal color scheme really added to the dreamlike quality of the image and made it a worthy addition to this month’s curation.
BambooU | Sketch Book #36
Sketch Book #36 by digital artist ‘BambooU’ is a vibrant portrayal of urban youth, and a digital illustration that perfectly captures the pulse of contemporary city life. We really enjoyed the neon-lit backdrop of a bustling cityscape, with the use of vivid colors and crisp lines that seem to reflect the energy and dynamism of modern life.
Moonredark | Show me the Japanese Orange Hill Sun with Orange Death
This digital painting impresses with its raw intensity and the detailed tattoo artwork within the artwork itself. A signature style by artist ‘Moonredark’. We loved the intricate designs, adding layers of depth to her character, suggesting stories etched on skin.
Chrispy | Sky Racer
Captured through the lens of Southeast Asian photographer Chrispy, this our next entry employs the double exposure technique to create an image that’s both familiar and surreal. The bustling street scene is layered with a textured overlay, breathing new life into the image. This really adds a dreamlike quality to the urban setting, with the motorcycles and tuk-tuks, staples of Southeast Asian transit that appear almost ethereal, juxtaposed against this secondary pattern.
Quarta Ravel | Dance Routine
This playful piece by artist ‘Quarta Ravel’ presents a charming scene that exudes joy and simplicity. With bold, flat colors and clear lines, it creates a wonderful comic style that gives it a lighthearted appeal.
Oivato Agosto | Mahabharata, Page 11
This vibrant illustration by Oivato Agosto from page 11 of their rendition of the “Mahabharata” is steeped in a rich narrative. The scene is ablaze with motion and color, depicting a dynamic battle with warriors on horseback and an archer descending from above. Agosto’s style, blending traditional themes with a contemporary graphic twist, really adds a fresh perspective to this ancient tale.
Fabio Nodari | Kunming — CC5
Fabio Nodari’s aerial photograph of Kunming captures a breathtaking view of nature in harmony with urban life. The beautiful display of the jacaranda trees in full bloom, with their vivid purple blossoms, contrasts wonderfully with the surrounding cityscape to create a really aesthetically pleasing and well-composed piece.
NotOnBoldStreet | IronMan
This evocative photograph by Notonboldstreet stands out for its haunting interplay of light and shadow. We loved the ethereal lighting that casts a vibrant spectrum across the scene, suggesting a moment of tranquility and otherworldliness.
The Monk | #13 Mr. Wrigleys
The Monk’s” creation, Mr. Wrigleys, delights with its whimsical charm and bright hues. The playful exaggeration of the grin to create that classic caricature style, along with the unique hat gives it a really lighthearted feel, making it a quirky addition to this month’s collection.
