Rachell Sumpter’s Dreamscapes

Really loving Rachell Sumpter’s unique illustrative style. It’s at once hazy and detailed, colorful and quiet. Her characters seem to inhabit a dream world without distinct boundaries, left to wander a nostalgic landscape. View her portfolio here.

Matei Apostolescu’s Intricate, Imaginative Illustrations

I’ve been a fan of Matei’s ever since I bought this piece as an iPhone skin (totally bitchin’ and inexpensive; pick one up here). It’s a pleasure to look at every day and I get a ton of compliments on it. He has a huge body of work, and also offers free wallpaper and icon downloads on his portfolio site. Check it out.

Ryan McGinness’ Technicolor Psychedelia

Dubbed “a Warhol for the information age,” (Afterimage) and “a leading pioneer of the new semiotics,” (Vogue) Ryan McGinness stuns and delights with his technicolor mashups of pop culture icons. He’s represented by Deitch Projects, which seems very fitting, and you can view his work here.
