He Left an Impression

Today I was creeping out on Behance and I came across the work of Anthony Ventura. There are so many talented illustrators out there, and it's always refreshing when I find someone who's work pretty much makes my day, for a bunch of reasons. It's easy to get lost in his world, and I could spend hours looking at all of the posters, magazine artworks, and digital drawings that he created.

The images of Chris Cornell and Nick Cave are quite ominous, and George Harrison looks somewhat sublime. The portrait of Ginger Wildheart for Planet Rock really amuses me and puts me in the mood to eat cannabis-laced sweets for dessert.

If you like what you see (and why wouldn't you?), you can get signed prints from Anthony's Big Cartel store or T-shirts from Threadless.

Sayaka Ganz creates amazing art menagerie from discarded plastics

I could never get enough of Sayaka Ganz . The Japanese-born artist saves the planet from plastic, at the same time creates brilliant animal sculptures. Raised under the Japanese philosophy of Shintoism, she hopes to bring greater awareness to the condition of our environment through her art. When creating sculptures, Sayaka organizes the reclaimed plastic objects into color groups, constructs a wire frame, and then carefully attaches the fragments of waste until she creates the shape she has envisioned. Her work has been exhibited in many places around the globe, among them Parma, Tokyo, Denver, New York, and San Francisco to name a few. Sayaka's Reclaimed Creations is currently on view at the Asian Arts & Culture Center at Towson University in Maryland. She regularly posts on Facebook, so be sure to like and follow her page for updates.

Kulay Sa Tubig

Image credit: Manila Bulletin Watercolor is not easy to use. It's unpredictable and hard to control. Unlike opaque paints, a slight change in the water-to-pigment ratio or the wetness of the paper can alter the outcome. But, with a lot of practice, plenty of patience, and a little bit of luck, you can create something truly beautiful. Anyway, here are some of the entries from the 37th Kulay Sa Tubig National Watercolor Competition, which was held recently at Estancia Mall in Pasig. The exhibit runs until October 27, 2025.
