Places | Eleanor Crow Illustration
I love the watercolour shop fronts. (via @undermanager)

Comics — Jeffrey Alan Love
I love the comics and illustration work here. Shows what you can do with not much more than silhouettes. (via Warren Ellis)
-
Nighttime
Nice illustrations, sold as prints, of some mostly London buildings.
-
Simon Stålenhag Art Gallery
Really lovely illustrations. To quote one review, “the deeply creepy, robot-and-monster-haunted alt-Sweden”. (via Paul Pod)
-
James Ferguson illustrations | The New York Review of Books
I love these watercolour(?) caricatures/portraits, the solidity of them. (I also love that the NYRB’s search results can generate results like this for one of their illustrators.)
-
John Bryce SWE RE - Along the Thames
This was also at the Bankside Gallery. Tiny, slightly twee, but very nice. He doesn’t seem to have a website, but Google images turns up a few others, many detailed London views.

Six Snapshots of St Paul’s - Anne Desmet
Saw a single version of this Bankside Gallery today. Nice, tiny, detailed. A good not-touristy, vertical London landscape.
-
Print-Process / Artist - Melissa Price
I imagine that if you did a lot of driving you might have some attachment to particular junctions. Even without that, I like these posters of junctions on the M1.

Some lovely old copyright-free books on figure drawing as PDFs. (via Ministry of Type)

-
Byroglyphics - news
I love some of these paintings / illustrations. Well-drawn plus splattery! (via Drawn!)
-
Illustration Friday
A different topic every week for you to create an illustration about. Lovely idea. Why are there so few hours in the day and days in the week? I want to do everything. (via Haddock)
-
Stefan Glerum
I’m liking this chap’s black and white illustrations so far. Dark and humorous. (via Drawn)
-
Hong Kong’s Most Disturbing CG Illustrations « WITMOT?
Hong Kong’s ‘Apple Daily’ makes computer images for news stories when there are no photos. Hilarious, especially if you scroll down to Morgan Freeman. (via Ted Mills)
-
Postcard from Provence ◊ a painting a day ◊ a daily painting blog
He paints a painting every day and then auctions it. Lovely paintings. Something like this has been my exit strategy for a while (assuming I found time to improve at painting/drawing/etc). (via Textism)
-
Ladybird Prints
Nostalgia prints. Great idea, some lovely illustrations there. (via Blech)
-
Alexandre Day
I like these drawings. Verge slightly on the too twee, with those winsome eyes, but I love the marks. (via Drawn!)
-
Ironic Sans: The Other Art of Courtroom Sketch Artists
What the people who do the drawings of court proceedings draw/paint when not in court. I like Patrick Flynn’s court work there. (via Drawn!)
-
Melamed
Some great illustrations by Victor Melamed. (via Drawn!)
-
Alex Green
Lovely illustrations (warning: plays music and, like most illustrators’ sites, features an annoying and tiresomely unique interface).
-
“An Ilustrated Life” Preview
Lovely collection of pages from “artists, illustrators and designers’” sketchbooks. Awful slidy Flash interface though. Illustrators are worse than estate agents in their use of appalling interface techniques. (via Ted Mills)
-
Em-K :: Emily Ketteringham :: Screen print gallery
My favourite work seen on the ‘Southville Art & Performance Trail’ in Bristol last weekend.

-

Wonderful collection of 1920s and 1930s travel posters advertising exotic destinations like California, Bermuda and North Wales. (Click the little ‘Next Page’ link, bottom right.) (via Drawn!)

Gorgeous lino cuts. One day I’m going to do lino cuts again. I can dream that they’ll be this good. (via Drawn!)
-
Randy Glass Studio
Incredibly detailed and accurate black and white ink(?) illustrations. (via Drawn!)
-
André Carrilho
Some fab distorted caricatures here. (But what is it with illustrators’ websites and endless Flash and pop-up windows? Hello, it’s the 21st century, please keep up.) (via Drawn!)
-
Kyle Reed Illustration | 905.297.9454
Some of these collage illustrations are great, although I wish he’d use a few more of the original photos’ features rather than, say, making eyes out of black and white paper. (via Drawn!)
-
Process Recess
Some gorgeous life drawings on this illustrator’s weblog. (via Drawn.ca)
-

My new favourite weblog, full of inspiration. (via Boing Boing)
