I was driving down Sunset yesterday afternoon when I noticed a striking new billboard, featuring the art you see above, with some work that looked familiar. On the billboard though there was only one identifiable mark, which was the Matador Records logo. So I went to Matador’s website and the art was for the new Queens of the Stone Age album Like Clockwork, with all of the art for the album created by UK illustrator, Boneface.

Owen Davey is a very talented illustrator from the UK. He’s worked with a number of clients including The Guardian, New York Times and The Leisure Society and, over the last three years, he’s also published three picture-books. On his site, he impressively claims that he’s had work published in every continent except Antarctica (take note Antarctica)!

New York based illustrator Nick Iluzada caught my eye with his illustrations that are filled with vibrant colors and tons of movement. Finding his work was great because it allows me to continue on with this crazy colored streak of posts I’ve been putting up today. It’s awesome that he can jump seamlessly between commercial and more abstract work, though everything he does is really unique and interesting.
If you’d like to see more Nick’s work also check out his Tumblr.

You probably know by now that I’m a big fan of Nobrow Press. Yet despite my enthusiasm for the indie publishers, it wasn’t until recently that I got to check out their self-titled flagship magazine. Already up to issue 8, each publication is a fantastic compendium of contemporary graphic art, bringing together a wonderful collection of comic creators and illustrators.

All I see on Twitter these days is Daft Punk. There’s a snippet of their new song “Get Lucky” featuring Pharrell and Nile Rodgers out, they released their track-listing via Vine, their outfits were designed by Hedi Slimane for YSL, I mean, the mania won’t stop. So I’ll stoke the fires a bit as well.
Phenomenal UK illustrator Matt Taylor has created a pair of amazing images featuring the Daft Punk duo in their most recent incarnations and he’s done an incredible job. These aren’t official, he’s done them for fun, but someone should totally hire him to do more. You can see larger versions under the cut.
