‘I’m a self taught digital mixed media artist who creates art through merging scenes that have been captured within my mind with scenes that have been captured by hand to create the living space that my subconscious tries to convey.’
Many thanks to oxane for this Tumblr Monday to share with us one of his favorite artists Laura Redburn. Obsessive and excitable, Laura is a cat-lover and artist based in Cardiff, UK. Laura’s work is always colourful, introspective and curious. “Most of the time I just make images or ideas that come into my head, I want to express thoughts from my deepest subconcious.” She is inspired by everything, but particularly animals, patterns and textures, anatomy, films and music. You can visit her Tumblr and shop for more work. (Interview with artist by ARTchipel Apr-2012)

Many thanks to darksilenceinsuburbia for having introduced us Julien’s work!
Actual poster from the mid-50s issued by Senator Joseph McCarthy at the height of the Red Scare and anti communist witch hunt in Washington. All artists were suspect.
I always used to lose charades as a child. I would hold up five fingers (the number of words in the title) and everyone would just groan, “James and the Giant Peach… again.” I just really loved that movie, I guess.
