Doug Cowan by Lost At E Minor
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.

A Paper Tiger
A Paper Tiger is a new venture that launched in January of this year selling exclusive prints by some favorite artists such as Jack Long (pictured). Usually so-called printmaking and distributor sites are unimpressive, but these guys really seem to know what they're doing. With artists like Ken Garduno, Haubs, Tesslar Lo, Jeana Song and many more, A Paper Tiger is releasing extremely limited...

Sanna Annukka
I first locked eyes on Sanna Annukka's beautiful designs when British band Keane commissioned her to create the artwork for their second album Under The Iron Sea. Her silkscreen creations are a cool blend of her Finnish heritage (most notably, the epic poem The Kalevala), as well as the art of the Far East....

Steven Wilson
Steven Wilson just did the latest cover for The Fader magazine which really caught our eye. Fader's art director (and occasional Lost At E Minor contributor) Phil Bicker led us to Wilson's website. We're really impressed with how prolific he is and how he's created his own style that looks a bit '70s mixed with right now....

Matthew Woodson
Matthew Woodson's illustration style doesn't exactly break new ground, but it's his rotoscoping-like technique we like most. Overriding themes include half-nude woman, tattoos, skeletons, violence and mystery, all of which we like and seek out. Check out more of his work on his website, ghostco, blog, with hands and hair (and eyes and bones and knees). You can also see his work in some...

David Reed
It's either the eye-pop effect of his palette or the graffiti tag sensibility of the brushstrokes that endear David Reed's new paintings to me. They just seem familiar. In what can feel like an austere and exclusive world of high culture and Chelsea art openings, his solo show opened with a mix of 20-something hipsters and beret-topped collectors. So it seemed like Reed achieved...
