Nicholas Jones & Dan Tague via Art MoCo
There is fabulous interview with Australian artist Nicholas Jones over at Design Files, along with numerous photos of his work. Jones makes intricate sculptures out of old books, an elaborate series of cuts and folds.
Dan Tague’s prints of folded cash first look like crumpled up money, but when the viewer takes a moment to read the message created by carefully folding the bill just so, all is revealed. Via Notcot.

This master painter, sculptor and illustrator from Strasbourg, France has the stylistic graphics that range from fashion, history, and advertising. Each illustrated compartment are very different. His portfolio is outstanding and pushes the envelope for the ability of illustrators to turn out more than just line and marker drawings.
Antoine Helbert’s portraits unleash a dark stare into the surreal surroundings of his models. He paints an ambiance so startling, you can’t help but stare. It should be no surprise that I relay he is also the scenic painter for Strasbourg’s Opera. His technique is oil on canvas for rich colors with eye-popping light sources.
His website contains a gorgeous collection of all his mediums and work. Antoine has created many posters for exhibitions, music festivals, and cultural events. He is a rising French star aiming high on his illustrative canvas of possibilities.

Isn’t that what most of us are looking for anyways? Someone to lay with forever?

Kelly Tunstall’s paintings and illustrations of tall thin young women are almost like fashion design sketches. Tunstall’s heroines (based on friends, family, stylish women she sees walking down the street) are all beautiful, sexy and ladylike, to better show off their glamour dresses, ballet wear or lingerie. Yet some do sport quirks as well, maybe two heads here or a pair of antlers or bunny ears there, just to keep things interesting.

“Injected”thanks again Art Moco
Not hard to recognize Tim Biskup’s background in animation that shines through loud and clear in his painting. His skills as a draftsman and technical painter have stood Biskup in good stead as he applies his technique to fine art and vinyl figures and t-shirts. Biskup defines his work, which has become darker over the years, as “baroque modernism”. This evolution is certainly evident when one compares Injected (2007) to a piece such as Ghonner Group (2003), but this is not to say it is easy to choose one over the other.Artist: Tim Biskup

“Untitled Museum” thanks Art MoCo
Canadian-born and Barcelona-based, Michael Swaney creates surrealistic collages that are delicate works with much fine detail. Swaney’s scenes combine architectural forms as backdrops for figures that play out a narrative left to the viewer to decipher. There is recurring museum motif; the idea of artefacts is fairly strong in Swaney’s work and the mixture of elements in every composition is not dissimilar to an exhibition of the various components within every story.
