Michael Kenna 005Who: Michael Kenna
What: Landscape Photography

Here’s some of my favorite shots by Mr. Kenna.  The English Photographer definitely knows what hes doing!  Have a look at his lil’ bio:

“Kenna’s photography focuses on unusual landscapes with ethereal light achieved by photographing at dawn or at night with exposures of up to 10 hours. His work has been shown in galleries and museum exhibitions in Asia, Australia, Europe and the United States. He also has photographs included in the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Patrimoine photographique in Paris, the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.”

Audrey Kawasaki

by Mayo on Jun.11, 2009, under Art

audrey-kawasaki-044Very dope artist right here!  Audrey Kawasaki paints only on wood panels which I find gives such a natural and warm tone to her already elaborate and sensual art.  Here’s her bio:

“The themes in Audrey Kawasaki’s work are contradictions within themselves. Her work is both innocent and erotic. Each subject is attractive yet disturbing. Audrey’s precise technical style is at once influenced by both manga comics and Art Nouveau. Her sharp graphic imagery is combined with the natural grain of the wood panels she paints on, bringing an unexpected warmth to enigmatic subject matter.

The figures she paints are seductive and contain an air of melancholy. They exist in their own sensually esoteric realm, yet at the same time present a sense of accessibility that draws the observer to them. These mysterious young women captivate with the direct stare of their bedroom eyes. ”

Heres a few of the favorites:

Clipse – I’m Good

clipse-imgoodArtist: Clipse (ft. Pharrell)
Song: I’m Good

To be honest, I haven’t been impressed with Clipse since like ’02?  When they dropped the Lord Willin’ LP…  Come on, “Grindin”, “Ma I Dont Love Her”, and “Cot Damn” were the business!  lol

So naturally I was skeptical when I saw this leaked single off of their upcoming LP.  But to my surprise it wasnt that bad!  Im feeling what Pharrell did to the track, which is usually the case.  Peep:

Alberto Seveso

alberto-seveso-019The Man: Alberto Seveso
The Art: Illustration/Graphic Design

I’ve been a long-time fan of Mr. Seveso’s work and thought I’d share a few pieces with you.

I love his twist on perspective, being able to incorporate very intricate design into what would normally be a solid base…

Very creative cat, and you gotta love his self-bio:

“Does not really matter who I am or where I come from, the world has no borders.  My illustrations speak for me, if you are interested to my artworks contact me. ”

See what Im sayin.
