Spectacular Moleskine Doodles Explode with Energy Philippines-based illustrator Kerby Rosanes proves that doodling can be so much more than scratching unintelligible scribbles on paper. Through his Sketchy Stories blog, Rosanes shares his wonderful world of doodling in a simple Moleskine sketchbook. Equipped with an ordinary Moleskine, a few Uni Pin drawing pens, and his innate gift for drawing, the artist is able to transport viewers to a world where tiny, cartoonish creatures explode with gusto to make up larger entities. Each of the illustrator's complex and crowded sketches are filled with minute details that allow the eye to wander and discover new characters and designs at every turn. The portraits are immediately mesmerizing, but even more spectacular when looked upon closely. Kerby Rosanes websiteKerby Rosanes on deviantART via [Gaks]

Why Bother Making Science-Fiction Art? - Bradblogspeed.com Collection: A Separate Realityby Alex Andreyev Often when I start a new project, whether it be a painting or piece of animation, I ask myself the question; should I avoid doing something science-fictiony this time? Usually the answer is no, but I can imagine that you might wonder why I’d consider avoiding the genre in the first place. Well, first and foremost there’s the whole “being called a nerd” thing that none of us like. And then there’s this idea out there that fantasy-based art isn’t to be taken seriously. So why do sci-fi art then? Absolutely my fave in the collection. Well, I can’t answer that question for Alex Andreyev, who’s fine work you see below, but based on my own feelings I bet I can take a guess. In my opinion, that’s why sci-fi art is so prevalent, even if it’s never widely appreciated. Well, I suppose at least that’s why I do it. Hello, my name is Alex Andreyev. I’ve been drawing, painting and doing graphic design over last 20 years. <<back to blog

Between the Lines Coloring Book Between the Lines, subtitled an "Expert Level Coloring Book," is impossible to color properly with crayons. At least, if you're intent on staying inside the lines. Filled with intricately detailed lined drawings, you're going to need steady hands and some finely-sharpened colored pencils (preferably with this Clockwork Sharpener we love so much) to properly do the trick. Illustrated by Peter Deligdisch, the book contains a variety of artwork, from pieces that look like some kind of Polynesian tribal design to a mess of junk metal hanging off a ceiling to ornate decorations that belong up a castle's walls. Regardless of the theme, each illustration is filled with a ridiculous amount of detail, making the job of laying down color feel like solving a complicated maze. The book contains 22 different artworks, all hand-drawn and selected to provide a diverse coloring experience. Remember when coloring felt fun and carefree? Check It Out
