Video game characters, with their entire inventory expressed in graphics.Linda Bouderbala is an Art Director at an advertising agency as well as an illustrator and character designer. Bouderbala begins by explaining one thing most RPGs have in common: “I’ve been playing Pokemon Sword lately, and while I have over a thousand items in my backpack, everything seems normal, I can run and go anywhere. But, in reality, it’s going to be significantly different.” Unusual, especially with a bike and a cooking pot on my back.” She had a great idea, to display some of the elements in her drawings/paintings.

New Zealand Architecture Areal Maps
Drawings of cities across New Zealand, in a bird’s eye view.I’ll let some words from artist Leighton Corbett begin the introduction: “I lost my job as a graphic designer in the close of 2020 in my home country of Auckland, New Zealand, so I’ve decided to use my newfound free time to create my own style of Aerial cartography.” Corbett opened and built her business during the pandemic. This was done during the lockdown, as area maps were introduced to many cities around New Zealand. A way to travel at a time when restrictions were tight. A way to capture […]
Doodling to Help with Anxiety
Doodling as a way to help yourself.Artist Saba Islam found that artistic creativity helped her with her anxiety attacks. “Then, whenever I had an attack again, I began to draw. I drew what I feared and what made me comfortable. I drew myself to help me!” Art in all its forms has a great way of disconnecting you from the world. It takes you to a place where only you are and what you create. I refer to art as a medium, but you can use any activity that completely absorbs you into sharp focus. Some graphics may look a […]
Design Stack: A Blog about Art, Design and Architecture: Enormous and Detailed Drawing
A very large drawing entitled: “The History of the Rise and Fall”.Japanese artist Ikeda Manabu spends years creating one of his drawings. He is said to have been working on one drawing exclusively, at the time. Dimensions are as follows: 2 x 2 m (6.5 x 6.5 ft).It would be impossible to take in all of the great detail, so several shots were created to show just how clear they would be when enlarged. This is one of those pieces of art that really has to be seen in person, to appreciate in all its splendor. This is the second […]
Design Stack: A Blog about Art, Design and Architecture: Photo Realistic Car Drawings
Car graphics that are hard to distinguish from the photo.Artist Nikola Shulgi has appeared before with his stunning 3D graphics. Today we will look at his cars. A little history before we get down to business. Čuljić describes how he loved to draw anything and everything as a child. School and other commitments fueled his love of art. He restored it again after more than 20 years. He dedicated whatever spare time he had, and the joy of creating art made him feel like a prize rather than a chore. He’s now making a living and couldn’t be happier. It’s […]
Design Stack: A Blog about Art, Design and Architecture: Mermaid Drawing and Painting
This post is the result of a one-month mermaid challenge.Threeleaves describes how a year earlier the artist had only managed to produce 20 pieces. This year, Threeleaves managed one mermaid for every 31 days. The ones you see below are some of my favourites. I really like the imagination behind these illustrations. Mermaids adaptations of various sea creatures and inspirations from cartoon characters. Manta and jellyfish are my favourites. The pieces appear to be a combination of watercolor paint and fine detail pen. Legendary creatures are made even more special with cross-species mixtures. Have fun choosing your favorites and thinking […]
Drawings Paintings of Hands and Feet
Hands and feet are of particular importance to this talented artist.South Korean artist WanJin KIM gives his work realistic proportions and colours. He achieved this with a mixture of colored pencils, acrylic paints, and inks. As I said above, the anatomical features that take center stage in most of these illustrations are the hands and feet. Most of the body popping/emerging from it fades away as a feature the artist isn’t really interested in, or as a way to focus our view on aspects that KIM wants us to pay attention to. An aspect of the human figure that is […]

An opportunity for you to have a look at it and choose your favourite. […]
