Matthew Lyons has quickly made his way onto my list of favorite illustrators. His work reminds me a lot of Mark Weaver's, which I absolutely love. In particular I'm really digging his fake movie title screen shots. I wish somebody would make these into actual movies. I'm a 21 year old student called Matthew Lyons in the final year of an illustration and animation course at Loughborough University in England.

Alex Gaidouk is originally from Russia but currently calls Brooklyn home. Every so often a photographer will come along and take pictures that make you wish you could teleport yourself to that exact location at that exact instant just so you can feel the beauty they feel. Alex did it for me. I don't know how he does it, and honestly I don't even want to know. I'm happy enough just marveling at these beautiful shots and wishing I could be at these places too.

I've always been crazy about the careful combination of watercolor and pencil so you can only imagine my excitement when I came across Esra Roise. I can't get over how perfectly she uses light and shadow to fully model her figures. Her depiction of hair is exquisite, all while maintaining a very relaxed mood to her drawings. I recognized her work through some pieces she did for fashion and pop culture magazine, Nylon. Really awesome stuff.

I'm really loving the creativity behind this video by Langara College in Vancouver. The video basically consists of a bunch of really awesome paper techniques coming together to convey important messages about the design process. Things like "don't fall in love with your first idea" and "figure out what you want to say." Simple messages that we sometimes tend to forget when we get so caught up in our ideas.

I came across Basilio Silva's portfolio the other day and was instantly drawn to his super edgy style. His fashion work is a sublime mixture of bright colors and sharp angles that really leaves me wanting more. I found virtually no information about him except that he's based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Andrew is a 23 year old illustrator from Auckland, New Zealand. I wish I knew the right words to describe my feelings for his work. If I had to try I think it's probably his kooky style that I really dig-- his off-beat color schemes, low saturation, and cartoon-y figures. Major eye candy. I'm loving it.

Katheryn's style is one that I love--pictures that compositionally don't have a lot going on but somehow capture your attention anyway. There's this hazy feel in her shots, usually accompanied by this distinct air of mystery, that really makes you wonder about the story behind the picture. I appreciate photographers who make people think with their work more than those who just leave viewers in admiration of a pretty subject and composition.

We had a laugh with this one. Totally Looks Like is a website that makes comparisons between well-known people/things and less well-known people/things. We gathered here a collection of the funniest and most obscure comparisons we found so you guys can start off the week on a good note. Some of these can get downright ridiculous but all in the name of good fun! I think my favorite is the second to last one, haha. Oh, and scroll all the way to the last one for our very own celebrity lookalike ;)
