Christoph Niemann is an incredible illustrator who has a blog on the New York Times called Abstract City. Usually simple illustrations that just work so well at explaining what he happens to be talking about.
Yesterday’s entry makes me nostalgic for the city, and I live here.
My friend Liz Lomax is a very talented illustrator. Her technique is called three dimensional illustration. Basically, she sculpts these incredible figures. Builds very detailed dioramas to go with them. And then she photographs the whole shebang. The photo is the finished product, the photo is the illustration. Sometimes she even destroys the sculptures after the picture is taken. And that makes me a little sad.
She’s been documenting her run ins with a recent MasterCard project she did, on her new blog. She literally finds her artwork on billboards and pay phones all over New York City. Here is what she said about the experience:
Of all the people I know, Liz is the closest thing to a rock star. Do yourself a favor and check out here site and blog.
