Shame about the image quality but cool work from Paris based chalk artist, Philippe Baudelocque.

Just stumbled upon this Illustrators work whilst browsing the t’interweb. Dunno where she’s from, sounds Russian or something. I like her style, reminds of a blend of some of my favourite cartoons, bit superjaily – psychedelic and freaky. Anyway, have a look on her site, tons of stuff for your eyes on there!

Seen a few of these floating around but think they are worth a full post, awesome.

All in the Wrist

We shall be attending this exciting looking event on Thursday, get down for some arty goodness!

Bench proudly present ‘All in the Wrist’ – 15th November – 8th December 2012
Curated by Manchester’s very own Moot, All in the Wrist brings together a collection of cardboard chaos from some of the North West’s finest artists.

Featuring works by Tasha Whittle, TJ “KREK” Dolan, Lottie Smith and Tea One.
A ‘no rules’ ethos applies to the exhibition. Incorporating a mix of styles from illustration, sculpture and graffiti, All in the Wrist gives rise to a whole host of techniques all brought together by one mesmerising medium of choice; cardboard.

The Bench gallery, a previously disused basement of the newly launched Bench Concept store in Manchester’s Northern Quarter, provides an innovative backdrop to this fantastic exhibition.
The exhibition launches with a private view evening Thursday 15th November, with music from Saber T and complimentary drinks courtesy of Jameson Irish Whiskey.

To RSVP for the private view, please get in touch with portia@canoeinc.com
