Surreal Steampunk - Animal Drawings

Multi talented Russian Artist Vladimir Gvozdev, creates paintings, graphics and sculptures.  His works looks like the notes and experiments of an eccentric Steampunk Scientist.  He creates detailed technical drawings of the animals he wants to create, (beautifully framed in boxes containing, gears, instruments and all sort of  little trinkets, that give them a fantastically Antique look).  He also has variations in the animal drawings, with different concepts for the fish and the Rhino, for example.  He then has a second set of drawings, depicting how humans can use these mechanical animals and lastly some sculptures of his concepts.  Beautiful and Surreal work from a talented Artist.  Enjoy...

Surreal Drawings not for Children

Amandine Urruty lives and works between Paris and Toulouse.  She creates these wonderfully Surreal black and white Illustrations, that on paper seem to be designed for children to enjoy.  They are full of plush toys, different kinds of animals of varying sizes and people in costume.  That said each drawing has one or more dark details in it, like a skull here and there a noose, skeletons and ghosts.  It is that time in the movie or in the dream when you transition from a sense of happiness of your surroundings to realising that everything is not as it seems, something is wrong and that things are just about to turn for the worst...

Surreal Drawings from Popular Culture

British Freelance Illustrator Luke Tobias has completely different way of drawing characters from famous movies like Star Wars, comic book heroes like Batman or Spider-Man, Stories like Alice in Wonderland, video games like Super Mario and Music bands like Daft Punk.  The clothes are mismatched in some cases you have Victorian clothes and sneakers.  As well as all of this, the beauty of these drawings, lies in the way he mixes and matches the different characters in a very surreal style composition, where one images contains many different references that will not all be picked up at first glance, you really have to explore them.  Enjoy your travels through Tobias' art and see if you can spot all of the references.
