Shiny Binary


Per his website here is some info: Nik Ainley is a UK based web designer who also has a passion for producing personal art and illustrations. His work is featured in many magazines as well as on books, album covers, posters and clothing. He was listed as one of the "Top 10 up-and-coming creative talents of 2006" by Computer Arts magazine, and later as "the Computer Arts artist of the moment". Again...not American. Grrrrr. but sooooo good.

eepmon

eepmon is Eric Chan...his prints are heavily influenced by Japanese print, graffiti, and music– the intricacy and detail cannot be fully appreciated with these graphics, so you should definitely look at them on the eepmon website where there is a zoom feature. So go..now! Do it! I'm here! Ok, gotta relax.

Perttu Murto


Perttu Murto is a 20-year-old Finnish graphic artist, and his portfolio is nothing short of, well, rad. Again, I'm challenging you americans to step up! I keep posting the foreign madness and it's not like I'm losing faith but c'mon now! Step Up! Muhahahaha.

Hello Color


Per Josh Spear: Hello Color (previously Norbb) is the design portfolio of 22 year old Pawel Nolbert– a freelance graphic designer, interactive, branding 3D genius based in Poland. You’re probably thinking to yourself “another 20-something graphic design mad-man?”, us too. With tools like Photoshop, Illustrator, a decent computer and a great imagination, we’re seeing extremely talented individuals come out of every city worldwide. Pawel has some nice prints available for sale as well.

Motomichi


Tokyo Born Motomichi Nakamura rocks the character flow like no other. Residing in Brooklyn his, simple, three color characters have graced installations, MTV ads, and VJ sets all over. Lending a designer's sense of shape and color to his character designs it's easy to see why designer fiends, such as myself, are attracted to his character sensibilities. Check out the site...lots of sutff to peruse including a blog and new happenings. Hoo-Wah.

Porte-Voix


One more time with the French...Parisian Benoit Godde is a designer/illustrator who I don't have much background information on but I do like his collection of female paintings which evoke some great emotive characteristics and not to mention the rad use of dark moody desat colors. Check it out and enjoy. 07..wowsers.

Qleem


Qleem is the work of Thomas Le Mouellic, co-founder of Phono.com, with Antoine Caillet. Nice and tidy and not too overwhelming...just solid good looking stuff from, again, another french crew. Anyhow, lots more to report after my trip to vietnam...pics and what not coming soon. Finally decompressing so please stand by.Hideeeeee Hooooo.
