Brianna Harden is working on a series of illustrations inspired by Thomas Pynchon’s The Crying of Lot 49. Here are some of the finished pieces. With a style unconcerned with strict realism, the saturated colors look great on the mostly white background. via.

simple observations

I recently discovered Dawid Misiorny, a photographer born in Poland whose photographs convey moments from all over.  Varying the composition from limited close ups to circumspect distant views, Dawid’s photographs are essentially candid records of an unaware subject, often in private situations. Found here. Images via his website.

Armsrock is an artist who applies his drawings to city walls by pasting or projecting the images. These images were projected onto walls in Copenhagen. I love the placing of the last image – position and location.
