Monsieur Qui

Monsieur Qui

A French illustrator who loves cats, dogs, handmade works, brass bands and pastes up big posters among the streets of Paris.

Monsieur Qui's style has a hint of works I remember as a child; while pouring through my parent's collection of design magazines.

A collection of un-curated gestural data captured via bespoke software by Evan Roth.

Elegantly simplistic yet mesmerising... similar to some of the work by the Graffiti Research Lab.

Ronzo's labour of love - Crunchy The Credit Crunch Monster is up!

I've been watching him slowly come together over the last couple of months, so it's wonderful to finally see he's found a home watching over East London.

Brilliant photo shoot for Insa Heels by the talented Dead Dead Dead.

I can't deny that I'll always be 'slightly' biased towards pictures of cute girls in nice underwear and good high heels!

Urban Angel are selling most of the art (in limited editions) that was displayed at the Corked Art Show a couple of weeks ago, and a lot of other very nice pieces by some really big names.

The paper sculpture above by Zeus was absolutely beautiful and I hadn't realised he'd made twenty five of them - hmmm...
