It's Not Over Yet: The Insanely Adorable Art of Akira Yonekawa

I think for most humans art is pretty cut and dry. Either you fall in love with it immediately, or you just kinda feel indifferent about it. I fell in love with Akira Yonekawa's art immediately. For me, it's pretty darn irresistible and I would own every single piece of it if I could. Very few people are able to capture the vintage cartoon newsprint style while maintaining a modern air of freshness and originality.

Here's Akira's charming bio:
I have been working independently as an illustrator.
I lived and work in Aichi,Japan.
My style is inspired by old comic magazine and pop-printing. It has become the motif of my illustration is the old comic magazine. Paper that has changed by long years. And because he is attracted to the sound words that the characters speak among the moral story. I want to convey a positive and positive emotions by representing scene of these old comic . Of course, these are my original character.
If you love Akira Yonekawa's work as much as I do, be sure to check out the additional art on his Website, Tumblr, and Behance!

Butcher Billy Gets Pac-Man Fever!

For those unfamiliar, Butcher Billy is a terrific artist/illustrator from Brazil. In the last several years, he has gained quite a bit of attention for his wonderful illustrations re-envisioning punk and new wave musicians as superheroes, characters from The Breakfast Club, and Nintendo mainstays. For example, Morrissey as Superman, Devo as The Flash, Joy Divison as Batman, Sid & Nancy as Mario and Peach, etc... You can view some of those here. They are brilliant. Actually, all of Butcher Billy's work is brilliant.

Recently, I have noticed Butcher Billy turning his attention to the wonderful world of Pac-Man. This week, he added two amazing new Pac-Man illustrations. Additionally, in the last couple of years, he has included Pac-Man quite a few other times. Is he prepping for a Pac-Man themed show? One can only hope. 

Regardless, check out the work below! Then, if you have a few minutes, go check out Butcher Billy's Website, Behance, Tumblr, or one of his stores such as Redbubble, Curioos, or Neatoshop!

Preview Teo Skaffa's Upcoming Web Comic "An Adventurer Is You!"

I don't think I have ever fallen in love with a web comic before the first panel has even been officially published. But, Teo Skaffa's An Adventurer Is You is so charming, so clever, and so irresistibly well drawn that I cannot wait to start reading the finished product. Originally from The Netherlands, Teo currently makes his home in Istanbul, Turkey where he spends his time painting and drawing. It has taken him a year of designing and redesigning the characters before they evolved into final their final form.

When I spoke to Teo via the magic of the internet, he explained, "It sort of changed from a comic to a videogame and now back to a comic with some videogame elements. It's nowhere close to being done sadly. I would probably do well to kill some darlings and make the whole project more manageable so that it'll actually get finished haha."

Well, while we impatiently wait for An Adventurer Is You to be ready, I highly suggest you check out Teo Skaffa's other work. Start with his Website, Blog, Twitter, Facebook, and Behance! And, be sure to tell him that An Adventurer Is You should be a priority!
