I discovered someone rather intensely amazing during my nightly Pinterest trolling. Her name is Morita Haruyo and she's a Japanese artist who does Ukiyo-e-looking ladies in a more modern way. Her paintings are exploding off the screen with vibrant color! I think it almost crashed my browser. Unfortunately I'm having a hard time finding good, large images or her work... her website is a bit hard to navigate. Oh, how I want to know more and see more of her work! >_<

I found this amazing artist on the Juxtapoz Reader Art section. As you can see from my obvious confusion in the title of this post, I'm not sure if his name is Richard White, Rico, or Twelvty. In any case, I love the wildness and color of his paintings and the sketchy expressiveness of his drawings. I'd surely love to own one of his pieces. What think you?

His crazy sketchiness/wild spatter/paint insanity is just the thing I love! Booooo that he doesn't have a page I can "like" on FB, but I shall use the handy dandy Firefox bookmark. I would LOVE to have a print of his work. Time to go decide which one I want. Heee! On a sad note, I've been having this dratted cough that doesn't seem to be a cold. Perhaps I now have allergies at the late age of 27. :'(

I just adore Lu Cong's ethereal, mysterious, slightly sad girls! The luminescent colors seem to match his beautiful subjects, and although his medium is oil, I feel like they are very light on the paint, almost like sketches with a bit of color added. Of course I love that since I love DRAWING! What do you think of him?
