Today I'm following Joanna Thangiah a snarky, funny creator. Self described on her Instagram page as "Feminist art trash, brown, queer, fat & mentally ill. NSFW sometimes."
Sally Nixon draws women and the spaces that they live in. Woman that look like my friends doing normal everyday things. Her diverse woman are watching TV, taking showers, eating chips. Her rooms look as if they someone has just walked out of frame and left their jeans, their dog, and Dolly Parton on the record player. Definitely click over to her site to see them all!
I'm in love with Guiganoide's funky illustrations of popular characters, especially her pieces of Marceline and Princess Bubblegum from one of my favorite cartoons: Adventure Time. And if you look closely at their tattoos and coffee cups, they're a couple!
The Book of Memory Gaps by Cecilia Ruiz is a beautifully illustrated series of short tales featuring characters that have different types of memory loss. Thoughtful, beautiful and poetic, the words
Daisy Mojave Holland creates a quirky, individual, feminist group of characters with her funny and smart illustrations. Each one being themself without apologies, I love her women -- I want all of them for my friends!
Alfonso Elola uses anatomical imagery in his illustrations. His use of soft, colors in the Anatomical Phases combined with the female faces and flowers offers a perfect counterpoint to the exposed skeletal and muscular structures. The skeletons are much more the focus of his Capuchin Objects -- another series that I am really drawn to.
I am absolutely in love with these dress illustrations by Grace Ciao. She uses flower petals – and the occasional vegetable – to create her stunning creations.
