Inspiring collages

Inspiring collages from the Poireton's sketchbook. There is lots more inspirational candy at his Flickr page.

Ketna Patel

Senses provoking collages by Singapore-based mix media artist Ketna Patel. Ketna believes that "artists have a responsibility to reflect and project the changing society we live in." For her, this translate into powerful Asian images recently transmuted through pop art. Diverse religious icons, the extremes of real life and the rigid chaos of the Asian social landscape are displayed though bold electric colours. "This is Asia, this is what I see," she says.


Her art can also be found in lifestyle products, interiors (such as a local coffee shop below) and furniture where the cultural information is re-presented to test the boundaries between Art, Lifestyle, Marketing and Design.

Jill Blissen

Some of the many things I like from Jill Bliss's website. An illustator, crafter, web designer and more, it is no wonder Jill calls herself a "Jill of all trades"! Love the colours and the way she combines fabric, paper, and other found materials in her limited edition handmade pieces and artwork. Extremely inspiring portfolio.

Jen Stark

Wow…incredible stuff here. Paper artist Jen Stark has taken the use of the scissors to an entirely different level! Her sculptures and sketchbook are deeply inspiring. I just love what she did with the sea-grape leaf. Absolutely beautiful work of art. It's like the creation of an artist insect!
And the colours and doodles in her sketchbook just look amazing. I love seeing the process behind an artist's work - the raw "unfinished" stuff that is so free and boundless.
