The 21 years old digital artist is not only a great cartoonist but also a creative storyteller.

ɪᴘʜɪɢᴇɴɪᴀ ᴘᴀᴘᴀɢᴇᴏʀɢɪᴏᴜ (@iph.arts:

This Cypriot street artist found herself on her list because her work isn’t only aesthetically pleasing but also very unusual. What makes her so interesting is that she’s not any kind of street artist but an Urban embroidery street artist. When people first think of street art, embroidery isn’t usually the first thing that comes to mind. However, ɪᴘʜɪɢᴇɴɪᴀ ᴘᴀᴘᴀɢᴇᴏʀɢɪᴏᴜ knew exactly what she was doing when she took this art form to the streets.  She mastered the art of weaving images and stories with nothing but metal grades, threads, and her imagination.

Mara de la brochetta is a Belgian artist who’s known for her sweet and cute doodle-style drawings. Her drawings can capture the essence of even the strangest themes all while making it look magical and wholesome. Her drawings awaken the child in you, full of wonder and curiosity. Another interesting thing is her taste for great color schemes. You can even find some of her drawing made into fanzines and stickers.

Lady Grinning Soul🌛 (@lydianoelle_k) :

Finally, for fans of gothic and dark art, I present to you, Lydia Kendall. This young artist has a penchant for the unsettling and the unusual. this can be found through her various pieces of work. Despite it, or maybe because of it, her drawings are strangely captivating and enchanting. Somewhere between the realm of the mystic and the real, a lot of her drawing can be seen sporting third eyes, flowers and, unusually sinister grins, hence the name.

I’m an obsessive consumer of art music and fiction so i had to get these thoughts out of my head somehow. With that in mind, I have decided that posting what I write on a blog would be a good way to start. At least it would give me an opportunity to be read and criticized. Which is way better than keeping what I write forgotten in a folder of my laptop anyway. Now, with that out of the way, I hope you’ll like what you see here.
