Print’s Hand Drawn Illustration Competition Finalists, Set #2

by Aaron Kenedi

I loved these two but see more on the original post

The Transients by Ryan Peltier (Brooklyn, NY)

Materials used: Watercolor, gouache and inks on cotton rag paper, 17″ x12″
Artist’s statement:

I am influenced by American and European Folk Art and things like really old Mickey Mouse cartoons, they are kind of dark and the references are all out of date and that makes them better in a way.  They are enigmatic, you can’t really put your finger on why you love them so much.  I think there is something a little sinister about my work that comes through and that is what people respond to.  I think it can be healthy for art to contradict itself somehow, to be honest, to contain duplicity.

Delta Bluesmen by Eamonn Donnelly (Chicago, IL)

Materials used: Charcoal, graphite, acrylic paint, scotch tape on bristol & photoshop.
Artist’s statement:

This series pays homage to the performers that provided American music with a truly unique identity. Those early, raw recordings of Delta Blues laid the foundations for multiple genres that followed. My approach to the work was akin to a blues song; simple, honest and direct. Art direction by John Sanford for Muse magazine.
