Dan Mumford
Is it a coincidence that I have waited 5 months to write my 5th review? No. Was I expecting to write it anytime soon? No. Did I run across Dan Mumford’s work this morning, and immediately began collecting screen shots of this work to write a review about. Hell Yes! I mean, who could pass up work with such detail from an up and coming artist? Speaking of detail, I’m not going to go into to much as to why I like him, his work speaks(..Yells) for itself.
Info about the artist.
Dan Mumford is a 23 year old male illustrator/designer/rock star, “with an obsession for drawing hands, hair and tentacles”, who resides out of Bethnal Green, London, UK.

Jeff Soto
Here we are again for another artist review, for my fourth review I chose artist Jeff Soto, and as you will see below, there are many many reason to choose such an artist. Some of the unique qualities of Jeff’s artwork would be, first and foremost (for myself at least) his unique/uncanny color pallet which is used in all of his paintings. The second quality I would choose would be his distinct character designs, and their blend of both mechanical and natural features. I could continue going on about all of the things I find to be amazing throughout Jeff’s massive about of works. Rather than describing all of these qualities, I would much rather you see them for yourselves, and with that I present to you a small selection of Jeff Soto’s art.
Info about the artist.
Jeff Soto is a 31 year old male painter/artist/creative guy who resides out of Riverside, CA. with his wife Jennifer and daughter Shannon. He is a graduate (with Distinction) from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA.

Drout750
This third artist feature is on the ever so creative works of Drout750. I wasn’t able to find much on this artist in terms of personal information (name, dob, schools attended), however as you will soon see, his work speaks wonders. He has a very unique way of showing his character in both a cute/fun and down & dirty way. Without further ado, I present a selection of works by Drout750.
Info about the artist.
Drout750 or “Dro” is a 25 year old male designer / illustrator / cartoonist / painter / internet all star out of L.A.

Aya Kato
For my second artist feature I chose again to do it on an amazing female artist Aya Kato. I chose this artist not knowing much at all about her, though I had seen some works before (on a side note, I had added some of Aya’s images to my ”neat” folder, in which I have an ongoing collection of imagery that I find beautiful). With that said, I know present you a small sampling of the works of Aya Kato.
Info about the artist.
Aya Kato is a 25 year old female artist out of Japan, who studied Visual Art Education and Graphic Design at the Aichi University of Education. Some of her most notible works include artwork for a Microsoft WindowsXP TV Commercial and the music video for Tori Amos’s song “Sleeps with Butterflies”, in which it featured digital recreations of some of Aya’s works merged with Tori as the subject. Her style is uncanny blend of dark Art Nouveau and Manga/Japanese pop art

Audrey Kawasaki
Audrey Kawasaki launched a new version of her website 2 days ago, after looking over some of her new works (I have been a fan of hers for quite a while) I thought to myself, “I should showcase some of her work on my site, with hopes that it will send some viewers her way, and hopefully create some new fans”. So that’s what this is, my first of many Featured Artists posts.
First I would like to start of with a little info about the artist.
Audrey is a 24 year old female artist out of L.A., a graduate from the Pratt Institute, who creates some of the most beautiful and surreal paintings that I’ve ever seen. She has an uncanny style of depicting the female form, showing the subjects in innocent and also very sensual/erotic ways.
