Penelope Dullaghan by Lost At E Minor
Maybe it's because I'm regularly checking in on her profoundly candid blog, or because her work speaks to me in some uncanny way, but I've always felt a powerfully calming and comforting relation to the work of illustrator, Penelope Dullaghan. With a complete lack of pretense, Dullaghan creates softly textured images that amazingly manage to feel as if they're a piece of the artist's state of mind. She makes you feel as if she'd rather draw nothing more than bubblegum and desk lamps, and that's just fine with us.

Illustrator Andrea Innocent
Melbourne artist Andrea Innocent's illustrations are beautiful, stylized and surreal. Borrowing from the Ukiyo-e tradition of woodblock printing that became popular in Japan in the seventeenth century, Innocent uses crisp lines and monochromatic color to create poster-style works. Ukiyo-e, meaning "pictures of the floating world," were often images of otherworldly scenes and people. Like those of her forebears, Innocent's works are ethereal, populated by...
