Artist Kaori Mitsushima knows a lot of cats, and has dedicated numerous zines, paintings and drawings to them. In the video "I Am A Cat," Kaori talks about her love for her feline friends and shows us some of her work. We relate to her on so many levels.
Jack Teagle's illustrations and paintings include such things as Elvis, animals, and the monsters that hide under your bed. To help bring his work to life, he's also created a couple of fun comics like Fight, in which the devil himself has a tough time in the wrestling world.
Make it look like you know a thing or two about cooking—even if you don't—with Lucile Prache's kitchen artwork. If only cooking it was as easy as hanging an amazing illustration on your wall.

We love the way that Lauren Clay brings her work to life. Her papier-mâché sculptures look almost identical to her drawings. Lauren, teach us your ways!
Megan Bentley's zine The Moonfeatures illustrations of the big cheese in the sky. It is the beginning of a three part series which will also include The Planets and The Stars. She needs to make a lunar sequence font out of her moon alphabet, stat!
Camila Leon's simple yet extremely detailed drawings make us realize how shabby our notebook doodles really are. We want to break out some colored pencils and get to work!
Llewellyn Mejia is obviously not on LSD when he comes up with these sick illustrations, but you'd probably love his work even more than normal if you were! X - Jen

Words can't really express how we feel about Fabian Ciraolo's illustrations. A hipster Frida Khalo, a douchey Salvador Dalí and a retro guitar-playing Captain Planet? Amazing.

Oh Spike, you drive a stake right through our hearts. Thank you, BettyTurbo, for creating the exact Valentine's Day card we want to receive this year. (And we'd like this for our next birthday, please.)
Jay Howell's vibrant paintings and lifestyle drawings are filled with all the good things in life: alcohol, weed, partying, sex and scrawny-legged skater dudes. His latest gig was doing the illustration for Trash Talk's video "Slander" which involves some crazy drugs, a gnarly hardcore show and just a little bit of blood (did you see that guy get surfed on?). Fucking awesome.
