Very impressed with Nimit’s illustrations, I just had to share.. The detail is crazy!
Heres his Bio:
“I was born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario. I am a graduate of Sheridan ITAL’s BAA- Illustration program and am now residing in Toronto, Ontario.
With my work I am constantly trying to create images that appear honest and true to who I am. I hope that through my work I am able to grow and gain a better understanding of the world around me, one that I hope to share with others.”

In Love & War
by Mayo on Aug.11, 2009, under Photography
Here is a nice lil’ Tuesday morning treat
These pics are part of the cover-art for Amerie’s upcoming album, “In Love & War”
She never fails to impress me with her shoots, but this one upped the ante.
I love how people continue to step their design game up! especially in cover-art.
Look fwd to hearing, and seeing, the final album…

Marc Philbert

Dope!
Photographer Marc Philbert takes a unique approach with this set, using the model’s body as a canvas for projected images.
Carefully selecting the image with the pose, Philbert is able to capture very stunning shots.
Im guessing we will start to see more of these type of photo-shoots take place…

Pulse, by Teague
by Mayo on Aug.09, 2009, under Whips
“Pulse” the concept urban bike… that glows.
Here’s what Teague had to say: “150 years of continuous/passionate refinement have resulted in bicycle components that are both ultra efficient and ultra reliable. And yet this passionate perfection hides in plain sight. The power of design is its ability to create (animal) magnetism around compelling ideas in relevant context. –Pulse is a transportation solution in synch with the needs of today’s urban denizen.”
I actually think the idea is nice, and the execution pretty sick. If I ever were to be back in the “bike” market, I would consider one!

Style: Fashion/Fantasy Illustration
