Remarkable Works by Sense Collective
In collectives you can see the power of shared skills, where artworks are made in group and common thought is to make awesome pieces. Sense, a collective based in London comes up with some remarkable works, like these below. We are Sense, an aspiring collective filled with talented artists. We've been able to work with truly interesting people, and I think our collective experience shows in our work. When it comes to design, We judge success by the number of people positively touched by Our work. Craftsmanship plays a big role, of course, but in the end We believe design should make people happy or, at the very least, not to upset them. We will Allow our work to tell you the rest about us. These are only a few pieces of their whole work. For more of it, you should really pay them a visit by going to their Behance portfolio, where you'll get to see some truly great pieces, done by these talented set of people.

Fantastic Digital Arts by David Fuhrer
David Fuhrer is a self taught freelance artist born in 1985 in Bern, Switzerland. The 90's has a clear influence on this work especially because we grew up in that decade and started experiment with computer creating visual art. With focus on Illustration his work is full of details with some sort of surrealism influence sometimes as we can se see in the Red Apple piece. David is also member of the DEPTHCORE.

Beautiful Artworks by Evgeny Kiselev
Evgeny Kiselev is a freelancer illustrator and graphic designer from Saint Petersburg, Russia, his works were published in magazines such as Computer arts (U.K.), IDN (Hong Kong), ROJO (Spain), Grafik magazine (U.K.), Beautiful Decay (U.S.A.), E-tapes (France), Chewonthis magazine (U.S.A.), I.O. Magazine (Germany), X-Funs (Taiwan), New web pick, Artzmania e-zine, Sherbert magazine (U.S.A.), X-CUP (Taiwan), Semi Permanent books 05-07 etc. For more works and information we highly recommend that you check out Evgeny's website. "The diverse work of Evgeny Kiselev oscillates between the rigors of symmetry and prolific excess. Several compositions begin with vivid tiled patterns that are mirrored again and again until they can no longer be contained and are forced to push beyond the confines of their logic. Others, emerge from a single outline that manifests the controlled lawlessness of the work. Each piece achieves a complexity of color and layer that continues to build infinitely into the space of the page creating a warping spatial depth".
