So many lines. That's I can think of when I look at Marina Mika's art. Her ink illustrations are usually black and white, with minimalistic yet highly detailed imagery inspired by the secession movement as well as the Art Deco style, New Romantic era and Japanese graphics. Marina's drawings prove you don't need color to breathe life into art. She's beautiful, too, did I mention that?
Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!
