Hajime Sorayama

For me, this man defined 80's airbrush chic and holds the title 'Creator of the Sexy Robot'. The quality of his work is truly outstanding - especially when you consider that everything was done by hand.

There's a lot of other beautiful artwork on display, but be aware that most of it is far from 'work safe' ;-).

Ndeur

There's some really nice illustration work in here, but I particularly love Ndeur's gorgeously customised high heels. If you're tempted to surprise the lady in your life, have a look in his Etsy shop.

Qube Konstrukt

Great portfolio, especially some of the motion graphics - which can be viewed in their current showreel. I particularly like this bit of model making for the Next Wave Festival, it's nice to see people successfully combining traditional and digital skills.

They also have a self-published book called Consort that is available here - I have ordered myself a copy =)

Pablo Alfieri

Nice site with some great new work. I originally posted Pablo's Flickr set back in February and it looks like he's been pretty busy since then.

Jordi Ferreiro

Unusual illustrations and installations, comprised of vividly coloured geometric shapes.

Matei Apostolescu

A very diverse portfolio... there are some beautiful illustrations in there, have a dig around.

Curt Blog

Discovered this blog - I hope they add to it regularly.

I posted their showreel some time ago, but they've updated their site and it's well worth another look.

Ronzo

My friend Ronzo is having his first UK solo show at Stolen Space from June 19th - July 6th. He's a very talented man and it should be well worth a visit.

Update - The show was a great success and is now open to the public. All the work on display can also be viewed on the Stolen Space website.

Terratag

Haven't been here in ages - great Manga-style illustrations, canvasses and t-shirts. Terratag's comprehensive Flickr sets are well worth a look through too.

Julien Valleé

Awesome handmade graphic sculptures and stylish motion graphics. The site is full of lovely work, especially the Globo Logos and Black & White projects.

Solar System

I've just discover that my old friends over at Your Majesty have created this stunning iGoogle theme. I am currently using it ;-)

Duster 132

Inspiring Flickr set of 'Mech style' character designs, paste-ups and graffiti. Many of the illustrations portray lighting and texture beautifully...

Engrave Your Book

Laser engraved moleskins - great for personalising your own ideas book or as a gift for that creative friend of yours. There are some lovely designs already available, but if they're not to your taste you can always create your own (which I might well have a go at).

The Cans Festival

A street party of stencil art. Many famous names taking part on the 3rd, 4th and 5th of May - exact location to be confirmed. If you are in London I imagine this will be well worth a look.

Ascend

Some elegantly composed abstracts in the portfolio of Ari Weinkle.

Inck

Gorgeous mixed media canvasses and sketches with an interesting 3D and graffiti slant...

Sean Freeman

Dynamic portfolio with some outstanding semi-photographic type treatments.

Damian Czarnota

There are a couple of really impressive illustrations in this straight forward portfolio site.

Maxim Zhestkov

Amazingly detailed and highly emotive monochrome 3D work. Maxim's Flickr photos are well worth a look too.

Welcome To Cloud

The portfolio of Pierre Nguyen. Some striking 80's inspired abstract illustration and font design.

I Love Dust

Extensive portfolio with some lovely work. I just love watching their animated logo build on the start page!

Silencio

Átila Meireles's elegant portfolio site has a refreshingly humorous start page and contains some compelling abstract images.

Patrick Nagel

One of the greats, who encapsulated 80's chic through his stylistic illustration. The site is not impressive (I look forward to them completing the redesign of the gallery section), but there's some good examples of his work to be found.

Nodebox

2D generative art program for OS X, that outputs to PDF. There are a few nice scripting examples in the gallery to get started with.

The Royal Magazine

The Royal Magazine is the private journal of The KDU. The publication focuses on collisions, culture and capitalism and is packed with fantastic imagery.

Xtrabold - Nelson Balaban

Strikingly detailed abstract illustration and experiments, demonstrating a deep understanding of colour and composition.

Théo Gènnitsakis

Solid portfolio with some great illustration, I believe he used to work with my old business partner Anthony Kyriazis (Onyro).

Okadada

Fluid, script-driven, illustrative abstractions... quite mesmerising.

Glam - Adrien Donot

Diverse portfolio with some stunning imagery and detailed illustration.

iLK - Ludovic Prigent

Great illustration, web design and some really nice graffiti too...

Serious Situations

Some lovely abstract illustrations, especially the ones with the strong 80's theme.

Delta

The grand master of constructivist graffiti has updated his site with some lovely new work and photos.

Mato Atom

Visually stunning and stylistically varied examples from the portfolio of Mato Atom.

Joshua Davis

My old friend and work colleague has a newer lo-fi site up, full of Flash-driven abstract loveliness.

Other - Jozias Dawson

Lovely randomly generated 80's inspired graphics form the backdrop for this slick, elegant and fun to use portfolio site.

Victor Taba

Music and animation mix randomly on a stage of visual and aural stimulation.

Sumeco

Some lovely abstract experiments, illustrations and typographical treatments.

Hotbox Designs

Beautiful, big-eyed, manga-inspired paintings and sculpture by Sas and Colin Christian.

Yeah! Reel

New Serialcut showreel, and it's extremely slick! Motion graphics by the ultra talented Tavo.

Superdeux

Long standing portfolio with a bold cartoon style and some really 'cute' character designs...

Monaux

Lovely, highly detailed portfolio from artist/illustrator/designer Karl Kwasny.

Nathan Flood

Good to see this portfolio back online, extremely high quality work and Nathan's been around for about as long as I have - one of the original digital abstractionists!
