Digital Artist/Designer Inspiration
Guillaume Chiron -Collagist
Guillaume Chiron is a french collagist. He works with books and periodicals published between the 1930s and 1980s.
I like that his work often takes on a humourous tone and tells a story about life in some way.
I also love his use of flat often vibrant colors as backgrounds to the old more worn images that he uses.
Anka Zhuravleva - Photography
Anka Zhuravleva actually went to Moscow Architectural University and self-trained as a photographer.
She is currently based in Porto, Portugal but previously worked in Saint-Petersburg, Russia.
She has shown her work at many exhibitions since 2004.
What I love about her work is that even though she focuses on portraits they are often fantastical in nature.
A lot of her work is in black & white or contains more muted color pallets.
My personal favorites though are the ones that have incredibly vibrant pops of color.
Especially this bright blood red that appears quite a bit in her work.
Mariah Llanes - Illustrator
Mariah Llanes is a Filipino-Canadian freelance illustrator based in Toronto, Canada. Her illustrations are usually commissioned to accompany journals & articles like in the Hollywood reporter and Money Sense.
What I like about her illustrations is that they tell a narrative & have clever visual twists.
They fulfill the purpose of being the visual representation of a specific article while also being creative aesthetically pleasing works telling a story on their own.
