Feline Zegers is an artist with a love for illustration and photography. "My work plays with the combination of good and evil, beauty and degeneration. I’m often dealing with relationships between people and their environments. My work offers alternate views of reality. The value of storytelling and it’s ability to connect us to each other through our cultural, humanistic and emotional similarities is very present in my work. The figures displayed take on different roles, although the role itself is sometimes vague, flickering between seducer and victim, preacher and sinner, woman and child. Riddles which may, or may not, have a solution."

New-York based Russian artist Nastya Kaerfkrahs KFKS just completed here next indoors mural art for the local book store ZAKKA SHOP "I spent around 5-6 hours of drawing per day for 1 month. During the process many people were wondering if I made sketches on canvases with a projector? The answer is that I used free hand drawing ONLY. As all of you may (or may not) know this is a drawing done by hand without the use of guiding or measuring instruments." Materials: canvases, black mat acrylic, brushes (01, 2, 8).

The moment I am still impressed from what I saw on Mr.Frivolous portfolio. His simple, hence striking, portraits created by using only pencils and felt-tip pens and seems he spends an overnight to create each piece. The speed of drawing, techniques, drafts and later original prints, creates the unique atmosphere while surfing his Flickr account. It is enjoyable.
