Matt Lyon is a London based artist and illustrator who’ve I’ve been writing about for a while now. His signature style is creating fantastically colored shapes and spinning them into brilliant little masterpieces. I love that he embraces the psychedelic in some pieces but can just as easily create a very organized, thoughtful piece that you’d love to have wallpapered around your apartment.

Really amazing new website from Chicago creative Mike McQuade. He designs, he illustrates, he creates fonts… the man is a machine. Above are two pieces he did for Wired Magazine which I liked a lot. He’s got so much work to pour through, be sure to take the time to see it all and get inspired.
Mike McQuade has over eight years of experiences as a multidisciplinary designer & illustrator. He believes that hard work, persistence, and a strong focus on craft leads to better work for his clients and other self-initiated projects. Mike describes his style as raw and always transforming. “I let the ideas lead the executions, I try not to let style come first”.

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.
