Born in 1972 in Sweden, Daniel Egnéus has spent 20 years in Prague, London, Berlin, Bologna, and Rome, and now calls Milan home. His work is an expression of his colorful and rich life, filled with friends and great love, and a little bit of daydreaming, of course. Egnéus has published several books and partaken in successful collaborations with Time Magazine, Pepsi Cola Espagna and BMW, to name a few.
See some of his dreamy works below.
Illustrator Hye Su Lee first caught our eye with the color illustration of a map of Manhattan on Design Work Life. We were so intrigued that we had to learn more! Hye Su splits her time between New York, Seoul and London – sounds awesome, right? Drawing is her passion and she draws inspiration from her surroundings to reproduce works that are part interpretative observation fused with her imaginative thoughts.

Aaron Feaver is a photographer living in Los Angeles, California. I first stumbled upon his work through the suggestion of a friend and became an instant fan. I’ve purchased many of his prints via his Etsy store.
Check out Aaron’s portfolio here and even more photos at his Flickr page.

Ce Ce first saw the painting below by Russian painter Vladimir Dubossarky at Miami Art Basel last December. Since 1994, Dubossarky has collaborated in an art duo based in Moscow, Russia with Alexander Vinogradov. At the start of their career together they adopted the style of socialist realism, “an officially sanctioned art practice under the soviet regime.” Their early works resembled posters for non-existent thrillers and sleazy porn flicks. While working with the ideas of social order and laborers – they put a modern twist on an outdated practice resulting in a collection of works that bring socialistic fantasies visible to the viewer.
“Vinogradov and Doubossarsky’s synthetic approach to painting fuses elements from many different formal and iconographic sources such as Socialist Realism, Sots Art, Soviet magazines of the 1950s, contemporary Russian advertising, and international pop culture.” (Deitch Gallery)
Based on “Morning in the Pine Forest”
The duo currently have an exhibition up until December 30th, 2010 at Triumph Gallery in Moscow.

We first fell in love with Luke Ramsey‘s work after purchasing printed zines at the New York Art Book Fair a couple of years back, and have been fans ever since. Ramsey has collaborated with over 100 different artists to date, exhibits internationally, and performs in a project called Radical Trust. His work is about “finding harmony in organized chaos” in his abstract drawings.

Ramsey is also a co-founder of Islands Fold- an artist residency located on Pender Island, B.C, Canada. After we saw photos of Pender Island, we totally get how you can be easily inspired by the backdrop.
Michael Casker hails from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and attended Brooks Institute of Photography. He currently works and resides in New York City.
We especially love his series of photos, Pet Cloud.
