Art Blogs

I like introducing beauty to my life throughout the day, in one form or another. A nice way to do this is to set up a feedreader (I use Bloglines myself) and subscribe to some nice art blogs.

Here's what I check out:


Ashley Wood
- I've always had a soft spot for his paintings and ink work.

Drawn! - My favorite blog, hands down. Most of the art feeds I subscribe to are directly because of this awesome site.

Farel Dalrymple - I've dug his work since he won the Xeric for Pop Gun War, and it's cool seeing the sketchbook pages he posts.

The Girls - Just got turned onto this one. Quirky paintings and plushies.

act-i-vate - THE spot for webcomics right now.

Lotte Klaver - I love love love her ink lines and the fullness of her figures. Gorgeous.

Plati - I'd seen his work on the Drawing Board forum a while back, and dug his Illustrator work.

James Jean - Arguably the best cover artist in comix today (alongside Brian Wood, Dave Johnson, and Tony Harris). He's got a lot of his developmental and figure work in here.

Rare Erotica - There's some real gems in here. They had a Klimt ink piece the other day that was really striking.

Royal Academy of Illustration and Design - The coolest studio going right now? It seems that way.

Gelatometti - Hey, I have no problem saying I dig the Wildstorm gang, and it's a fun blog with killer art.

Asaf and Tomer Hanuka - If I become half as good as Tomer Hanuka, I'll be famous.
