Franco Brambilla’s ability to transform the world of vintage travel postcards into eerie, mysterious and many times humorous tableaus of science fiction amazes me.

Carl Kleiner
A series of very creative photos from Carl Kleiner, styled by Evelina Bratell, showcases the ingredients of recipes for the IKEA baking book “Homemade is Best.”
Michael Cho
I can’t get enough of Michael Cho’s great line work, compositions and limited color choices. This portrait is timely, with the Captain America: The First Avenger movie in production.
Methane Studios
Methane Studios got its start in 1998 when Mark McDevitt and Robert Lee formed a partnership to produce silk screen posters for the East Atlanta club The Echo Lounge that featured some of the best independent bands in the late 1990’s. Today they exist as a two man studio creating package designs, logos, and posters.

Ashley Wood creates beautiful paintings and also translates his work nicely into 3D statues.

Rich and intriguing monochromatic drawings by Lee Misenheimer.

Due out in November, Benjamin Lacombe’s “Once Upon a Time…” fairy tale pop up book is sure to be sought by collectors.
Sarah Joncas
The work of Ontario-based artist Sarah Joncas generates interesting visual narratives with a rich color palette.
Mike Worrall
Mike Worrall has been painting since the early 1960’s and claims he is almost entirely self taught. He concentrates his subject matter towards exploring the subconscious with an appreciation of Paul Delvaux and Max Ernst amongst others.
Don Kenn
Don Kenn’s work makes me imagine an alternate universe where Maurice Sendak’s “Where the Wild Things Are” is instead written by H.P. Lovecraft and illustrated by Edward Gorey. Don’s vision and execution is wonderfully creepy.
