Guy Mckinley's colorful art


When I found these illustrations by Manchester-based artist Guy Mckinley via tumblr, I lost track of time and scrolled through months and months of hand-drawn and digital pieces before I realized how deep I had gone. His drawings and paintings are heavily inspired by Japanese art and western comics, but I can tell that they appeal to a wide range of ages and tastes.

McKinley has been consistently producing colorful illustrations since 2003, and his work has been featured in different publications. He has exhibited his illustrations all over Europe and the United States, and has been commissioned to create work for clients including Disney, Adidas, New Balance, Diesel, and Sprite.

Enigmatic Shapes and Psychedelic Patterns

To say that I love Sanagi 's work is an understatement. Looking at her art feels sort of therapeutic, and I find her drawings refreshingly intricate. They're trippy, psychedelic, and resemble something that you might see under a microscope. Not much is Googleable about Sanagi, but that's fine. There aren't many artists these days that still pull off the whole mysterious vibe, so I commend her for that. By the way... they're all hand-drawn with pen and ink.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

These peg dolls would make a cool nursery decoration for Trekkies

I'm so dad of a little girl. Look at me posting about toys and kids apps more frequently now. Anyway, I really love this Star Trek Enterprise plaything. It's made of 100% wood and features characters from The Next Generation . It's smooth, built to last, and perfect for little hands. I'm not just sure if it's still available for purchase on Etsy.
