A girl, on a swing, over an entire city.
Luis Beltrán is a digital artist from Spain that has a way with images. He masterfully combines photos and illustrations to create memorable, surreal and thought provoking works. Each one pulls you in and forces you to create a story for it. He truly has an eye for art and storytelling. Below each image, I will give you my interpretation of it.

This one makes you wonder what that could possibly be thinking.

Is this an abandoned railroad car or is it on a journey?

There's a storm brewing up.

A path to a wonderous carnival, or an eerie circus tent.

May the darkness lead to light.

Elephants are fantastic pets.

The beginning of an epic journey, or the end of the road?
Sandra Foster turned a small Catskills hunting cabin into a quaint Victorian cottage. It features vintage columns, flooring, and wavy glass windows. She also did her own carpentry. The very last photo shows the only entrance to the cottage, a stone crossing over a stream.
These are some incredibly interesting cut-out portraits by Lucas C. Simões. He takes a seemingly normal portrait and transforms it into something completely unique and interesting. These cut-outs are made from the same stacked image and have up to 13 layers. I love the abstract geometric figures and shapes he has created with these portraits.






These are some dark but still amazingly beautiful illustrations by Yana Moskaluk. They are based off of different Russian fairy tales. I love the exact very precise use of lines in the drawings, the selective coloring, and the use of patterns in these illustrations. There are some more lovely illustrations in Yana's portfolio.








This amazing paper cut-out artwork was created by Bovey Lee.
Here's his description of the work, "The foreground involves a sort of kids fight, surrounded by giant jellyfish being rushed to shore by the crashing waves. The mid-ground consists of two oil drilling platforms, collapsing, exploding, and catching on fire. The main figure is the girl on the couch who is unaware of what’s about to happen and laughing away. In the back, the threatening waves are in full throttle, while elephants balance on beach balls at the edge of a wall of water."
Love these illustrations by Claire Hummel (shoomlah on Deviant Art). Claire redrew Disney princesses to have more historically accurate attire. To see some of the resources she used for the dress designs, read her resource page. You can also read an FAQ about this series.
Gabriel Moreno is a gifted illustrator, engraver and painter based out of Madrid. His illustrations consist of a collage of elements and make excellent use of very defined lines which he uses to create depth, shading and shadows. The splash of water colors helps to bring an added touch of life to his drawings.










This is a very interesting series by French design duo HELMO (Thomas Couderc and Clément Vauchez) called Bêtes de Mode. Each photo in the series combines a person in a bluish hue and an animal in a redish hue in synchronous poses.This combination gives the images the look of a 3D image without the glasses. I'm not sure if the animals were chosen for each person for a reason, but when they look this cool, I'm not sure that it matters.










I am loving the digital illustrations of Denis Gonchar. His illustrations make great use of colors, lines, shapes and textures. Even though the pieces may have a similar feel, they were all created using different methods. You can feel a sense of exploration and experimentation with his works.













This is a beautiful series by digital artist Federico Bebber. I love the flow and energy of these pieces. The swirling lines go perfectly with the form and grace of the models. The use of black and white in these images help to keep the focus on the form and shapes of the images without being distracted by color.
