Yuko Shimizu is Japanese illustrator based in New York whose work personally continues to inspire me every time it pops up on my Instagram feed. You may have seen her work on Pepsi cans, GAP tees, Nike ads, as well as on book covers and magazine pages. In this video, Yuko takes us inside the process behind creating her artwork for Godzilla: The Showa-Era Films, 1954-1975, which also features new illustrations by Becky Cloonan, Robert Goodin, Benjamin Marra, Takashi Okazaki, Angela Rizza, and a lot more.
If you’re a fan of art that makes you do a double-take, you need to check out Richard Brener . Based in the UK, Richard is an internationally collected artist who works primarily with ink, fineliners, and gouache. When you first see his pieces, they actually look pretty playful. Then you realize the entire canvas is packed with thousands of tiny, ghost-like shapes he calls "champs." They’re all squeezed together like commuters on a rush-hour train, and the level of detail is honestly mind-blowing. Richard spends hundreds of hours drawing these little guys over and over. It’s obsessive, very intentional, and a little bit wild. The cool part is that the longer you stare, the more the vibe shifts. Check out more photos below:
