“What I love about art is that it is never standing still,” reflected Wodarz in an interview with The BoomBoom Prints blog, “my peers tell me I now have a slight signature style to my work but really I love to produce art and product design on demand. It is a special challenge to not rely on a medium or style for your inspiration but to let the world around you dictate the trends!”

Based in Minnesota, Wodarz had developed her style over time, and through trial and error. Her creative journey took her through different stops: being a studio artist first, then merchandiser, and lastly a home decor gift-ware product designer. Over the last five years, she has combined her digital skills and fine arts background into a thriving design career.

“I did go to school for Studio Art / Environmental Studies, I also took a Contemporary Art focused semester in NYC and numerous studio classes which shaped my education,” she explains, adding that she is completely self-taught when it comes to graphic design and digital illustration. “I love to combine different media to create new techniques and stretch my skills!” she exclaims.

“I love to work on a large scale because it’s more breathtaking and I prefer to select this size of the project,” the Spanish artist stated once in an interview with Design Boom. “I love to draw directly on the walls and keep creating and improvising during the process,” he added. “I need to see in person the whole architecture and try to play with that. When I do sculptures I need to sketch and then take it to my team to work it out in 3D. Depending on the project, I have about 4 assistants that help me with everything.”

His works, sometimes described as Pop Surrealism meets Street Art, aims at raising questions about existentialism, the universe, the infinite, the meaning of life, and the contradictions of society’s false freedom. “My work is more related to surrealism and pop-art, which I discovered in school, than to street art or what is known as contemporary art,” notes San Miguel.

Amongst his more existential works are a number of churches, transformed into rainbow-colored installations. Scroll down to see some highlights from his Instagram page.

“I started blogging about my work, and opened an online shop on Etsy,” she recalled in an interview with You Are Brave. “People around the world started reading my blog and buying my things, and I got some wholesale orders to the USA, and suddenly I found that I was a designer with a design business.”

What started as a creative experiment of sorts quickly took off, and nowadays Moor has her own store in Cape Town, South Africa (Skinny laMinx), where she sells anything from cushions and tea towels to table runners, all decked out with her vibrant patterns. “The Skinny laMinx recipe is simple,” reads her website, “Mix together a love of pattern, a cute shop, a top-notch team, and top it all off with equal parts playful and chic.”

Her inspiration is varied and comes from everyday things like cactuses, teacups, staircases, and vibracrete walls. “I usually have a notebook with me, where I make sketches, and I take a lot of photographs of textures, details, juxtapositions, and compositions that seem to give me ideas,” says Moore.

“It wasn’t a deliberate choice,” she admitted in an interview with Ballpitmag, “however, I love exploring the relationship between line and flat color and gouache is the perfect medium for this. Also, it dries almost immediately so it’s great when you’re working on a deadline!”

Based in the Hudson Valley, just north of NYC, her drawings and gouache paintings have been applied to products like books, bedding, clothing, furniture, fabric, dishes, rugs, toys, and wallpaper; with clients that include Kate Spade, Anthropologie, and Flow Magazine.

Reflecting on her artistic background she recalls her childhood as pretty idyllic, with her parents being both artists and encouraging her to be creative and embrace nature. That creativity and love of nature carried well into adulthood. “I met my husband in art school and from the beginning, we’ve dreamed of building a place to house our creative endeavors,” she says. “We now live in the Hudson Valley on 15 acres and are building that studio! I guess my adult life mimics my childhood.”

“I feel very connected to my memories of childhood and I’m always interested in bridging the gap between childhood and adulthood,” she adds. Scrolling through her many patterns and illustrations might help in bridging that gap:

Titled as the Malavida project, Rainaud’s art is inspired by Jungian therapy and creative exercises and aims to raise emotional intelligence and mental health sensitivity. “My work always has this tangible to digital dynamic,” explained Rainaud in an interview with Ohh Deer.

Talking about the process itself she says: “I usually start by working with a mix of different types of paints, inks, and materials to create a base movement and vibe. In this step, I’m not bothering too much with the colors or displacements to look perfect. The second step is digitalizing the artwork through a scanner or a camera, and then moving on to my favorite part, post-production. This third step is all about movements enhancements and adding all these signature vibrant colors. To achieve this effect, I usually work with algorithms, 3D software such as Cinema 4D and of course Photoshop.”

“Being a graphic designer in the first place, I’ve also always been drawn to abstract and experiments in general,” she added. “As far as I remember, before creating Malavida, I started playing with textures and visual effects for my graphic design projects while I was in school. I truly wanted to, one day, be able to build my own identity, based on the things I like and the way I am as a person. This trippy yet dark vibe has always been a part of my life, so I guess that my style and designs had to convey these aspects, in order to stay as true to myself as possible.

Her patterns and illustrations (assembled piece by piece) adorn all sorts of different products, anything from bedding, rugs, and pillows to aprons, floor tiles, and stationery. “That’s one of the things I love most about what I do,” she told Ballpit Magazine. “I never know what new kind of product collaboration is around the corner.”

Describing her wors as “fresh, whimsical, organic yet graphic, graceful and modern, with a nod to days gone by”, she adds that: “Sometimes my work is incredibly minimal and simple, other times, quite complex. I like to bury little hidden treasures in my work, little details that you only notice when you’ve taken time to really look at them.”

But whatever the level of detail, the finished product is always delightfully pleasing. “Art has the potential to really move people, and therefore, I find art is full of hope,” says Olwen. “And on a far more superficial level, art just brings beauty to the everyday… and I feel we need that now more than ever.” PREACH!

Made primarily with watercolors, her work is inspired by naturalistic illustrations, naive art, childhood memories, legends, and folklore. Working both independently and collaborating with designers, her work has a distinct uniqueness to it, that is hard to miss.

So far, she’s collaborated with brands like L’Occitane, and has created wedding invitations, playing cards, and her own illustrated books.
