Teatrio by Lost At E Minor
Teatrio, an arts association in Italy, is behind an amazing traveling exhibition titled "The Fabulous Colored Pencils," which has been touring through Italy for more than a year and features what they consider to be the best 40 female illustrators worldwide. Included among the works on display are originals by Yuko Shimizu, Juliette Borda, Esther Watson (illustration pictured left), and Fernanda Cohen. Each artist was asked to provide eight originals and do a commissioned portrait of their favorite female celebrity from their homeland. The Fabulous Colored Pencils is curated by Mark Heflin, the director of American Illustration.

Ghostshrimp
Though you may know him as the driving force behind the amazing Ghostshrimp, his name is actually Dan James. Dan recently took a break from his busy schedule to answer some questions for us.

Doug Cowan is an artist's artist in the purist sense: an illustrator who truly loves his sketchbook. That said, the New York-based artist' work is clearly permeated by an overarching sketchbook aesthetic. Cowan doesn't so much sketch in his book than thoroughly loses himself in it. The result being the most hauntingly beautiful drawings of nature, forlorn figures and everyday ephemera....
