REFLECTION OF NEW WORLDS BY NYDIA LILIAN
Mexico, Monterrey-based Photographer & Graphic Designer Nydia Lilian (tumblr / facebook) - “Photography for me is an escape from ordinary life; and also my profession. I have a rather vivid imagination and kinda escapist tendencies, so a lot of my work is a reflection of those new worlds & dimensions I imagined in my head.”
BROCK DAVIS - Some of my personal art projects.
Art-Designer Brock Davis (tumblr / facebook) - “Most of these pieces are made at home on the weekends. I get a lot of inspiration from my children. They create spontaneously, everything is new to them. I often try to revert back to childhood when creating, which helps me to view ordinary things in a new way.”

THE DAILY DOODLES “The Long Journey Across the Galaxy”
After hearing the hiss and click of the last hibernation tank as it pressurizes and seals in his shipmates, Harrison Daniels quietly lifts his lid and makes sure everyone is frozen in their pod…
In 31 years when they finally reach the asteroid belt they’ll wake up, but for now the coast is clear. He has the room to himself.
As there’s no oxygen being pumped into this part of the ship (since everyone is meant to be in their tank, frozen for the journey), Harrison quickly grabs a spare oxygen mask and climbs up onto the round windowsill overlooking the galaxy.
He’s not sure why he snuck out of his tank, but as he watches the distant field of stars stream by as the mining ship rockets along at lightspeed, he’s glad he did.
His mind struggles to comprehend the enormous scope of the galaxy stretched out before him, and while he feels a deep connection to it all, it also leaves him feeling totally insignificant. His problems, his worries… they couldn’t matter.
Thinking back, Harrison realizes he’s never actually been alone his entire life. Family, spouses, friends… and in 31 years when they reach the belt, he’ll never have a moment to himself. All he has is this, right now.
He tells himself that he has to do this again, somehow… for longer than just a few hours. It’s nice.
But, he has responsibilities still, and everyone will notice if they arrive at the asteroid belt and he’s the only one who has aged the 31 years (not to mention, he has no food— the hibernation tank is meant to nourish him as as they travel).
Taking one last long look out the window, Harrison gets back into his tank, and goes to sleep.

FLORA & FAUNA
Illustrated set by Jacob van Loon (facebook / tumblr + coalblack)
Initially stemmed from linework samples created for a previous client, “Flora” was the platform and basis for “Fauna” (see more), a set of ink illustrations inspired by a synthesis of organic material. Some areas of each panel more clearly express the form of chard, tobacco, and rhubarb, where as other areas were influenced by muscle tissue (living and dead), gristle, and bone. Each panel was given the respective title, however that distribution may be subject to some interchangeability.
RESIDUE BY LEANNE EISEN
Leanne Eisen (tumblr / flickr) is a visual artist based out of Toronto who uses procedure, perspective, and scale to re-frame her subject matter; often playing with chance operations, allowing for unpredictable results. - “In the series Residue, Eisen enters into dialogue with BP oil spill by relating the large-scale disaster in the gulf to the ‘minor incidents’ of oil stains on roadways caused by the individual citizen. These marks function as a metaphor for the effects and traces left by day-to-day petroleum usage.”

MUSES BY CONRAD ROSET
Spain, Barcelona-based freelance illustrator Conrad Roset (tumblr / facebook) - Conrad Roset’s work is extremely vivid. His subjects don’t seem like fictional characters one just drew out of imagination but more so real subjects with real stories; colorful stories that one wouldn’t mind hearing over and over again. This makes Roset’s work very eye catching and appealing.
