Rob Matthews
If Drawings Were Photographs from Rob Matthews. Illustrations by Tom Edwards. The dog one is my favorite.
I admit I find this last one to be slightly confusing.

Roberts Birze
As I was putting together my portfolio for experimental, I came across one of the images that I initially found when I was doing research. I really love this image, all of the layers, both in focus and branches. While looking for other images of his, I came across this quote from Birze
"My photography may not be good but may possibly be interesting."
Here are some other collages by Birze, although not as interesting

Clemens Behr
When I saw the installation Behr did at Galerie Seize I thought I was looking at something 2D. Totally trippy

New Zealand Book Club
So cool! I love this video! Its evident how much time and care were put into the making of this video. I love the idea of illustrating the book using the actual book itself.

Cardon Copy
Cardon Copy takes the fliers we all see posted around our neighborhood, redesigns them and then replaces the original flyer. I love the concept behind this work, it just seems like a lot of fun. I wonder what the original person who posted the fliers think when they see the new look...
here are some before and afters

Nick Veasey
Veasey is an xray photographer. He built a $200,000 concrete building for his xray machines. After the image is taken, the film is scanned and completed by Veasey's team. I am fascinated with the variety of subjects that Veasey picks to xray.
Made from over 200 xrays, 26 of these were used for the handshaking skeletons
For this image the skeletons were added to the xray of the bus. Veasey even separately xrayed the fedora (on the man with the newspaper).
This was the one image I recognized of Veasey's work.

Shooting
Just came back from shooting today. I have a lot of images to go through from the last few days. Hopefully some of them will be usable. I will post some images soon...

Brad Woodfin
Woodfin paints animals. I do not find this to be particularly exciting, except for the fact that he has a series entitled The Holy Goat. Woodfin definitely gets points for that! Also included in the series are paintings done on antique books. The books are the most interesting part of the work, besides the title of course, adding a strange relationship between the book, the book title and the pictured goat. While looking at Woodfin's work I liked what Meighan O’Toole of Juxtapoz Magazine said about the work,
"Brad Woodfin really likes goats. At that is what we can only assume from looking at his intimate portrayals of...goats."
The way this one stares makes me nervous

Kate Hutchinson
Hutchinson has a couple of related series of photographs revolve around her relationship with her significant other. The fist series is called why am i marrying him? and consists of images that Hutchinson says documents her boyfriend's personality.
inspired by Paul Strand
inspired by Edward Weston
inspired by Salvador Dali
The second series is entitled model husband. Hutchinson draws from artists who used their wives as subject to add a twist to the idea of art in relationships.

Glamour Headshots and Sexy People
I found this on Yay! Everyday. Unfortunately the artist only has a flickr page, but he has a lot of fun similar pictures.
A comment on the original page said that they were reminded of the site Sexy People. Let me tell you that this site was even more fun to look through. Sexy People is an endless collection of the hottest images the Internet has to offer.

Robert Samuel Hanson
Hanson has some interesting illustration work. He takes common everyday objects and twists them into humorous representations. He has such a wide variety of work, it is really fun to go through his site.
