Brianna McCarthy is a self-taught illustrator who creates these beautiful watercolor and ink pieces. A native & resident of Trinidad & Tobago, and her mission as an artist is to create displays of Caribbean women outside of the stereotypical representations often seen in art. I love her delicate style and the subtle emotions she displays in these portraits. Enjoy!

2 pippa's workable fixative

If you follow this blog you know that I love art & fashion and one of my favorite intersections of the two arts is fashion illustration. Flip through any of the big magazines (Vogue, Elle, etc.) and you will find fantastic drawings and painting interpreting the latest collections. I recently found the work of Pippa, and I love her drawing style. She has a great blog of her work called Workable Fixative, which for those who don't draw, is a spray that prevents smudging in pencil drawings. Check out some of my favorites from her blog below!

0 artist spotlight: ron ackins

Super talented illustrator Ron Ackins does these illustrations just "for fun". I love his sketching style and the use of soft cool colors on top!

He's done collaborations with a few clothing brands, but the illustration you may recognize most from him is this very popular Obama tee from Undrcrwn.
