Artist of the Month - Jin Young Shin

Forgive me, but I shall skate over the fact that I have not posted anything on here since December - pandas are notoriously lazy creatures.


Now, to my Artist of the Month for March - Jin Young Shin. A little weird, a little creepy and a little beautiful, rather like myself. 


You can find a selection of images here:

As usual Laura and I had trouble choosing our favourite pictures, made all the more difficult with Laura's head stuck in a book. So we picked a selection!

Artist of the Month - Kazuko Taniguchi

Golly gosh I appear to be a little late with December's Artist of the Month! Although we pandas celebrate our holy festival in October one cannot help getting caught up in this whole Christmas thing. I spent two hours staring at fairy lights, methinks I go all moth-like around bright sparkly twinkly things...Forgive me! 

This month Laura and I have collectively chosen Kazuko Taniguchi as our Artist of the Month. We thought we'd go for something cute and cheerful rather than dark and bleak, that wouldn't be very Christmasy would it (or so I am told, though I'm beginning to believe my foreigner status is being exploited). 

You can find her images and information on her website here:

We picked one we both liked (it's a Christmas miracle!) and then some Christmas ones to give us all a bit of festive cheer. Joyous Christmas to you all! May you eat copious amounts of bird and wear ridiculous paper crowns, may you welcome a strange man with a sack and beard into your home, may washing powder fall from the sky and cover your houses and make them smell nice (though not too much or Laura's mum will get stranded at work), and may you not go mad from food and family overdose. Amen.

Artist of the Month - Stella Im Hultberg

Another artist that I've known for a while and with an easier name to pronounce than dear Eveline Tarunadjaja. With a slightly darker feel that, I think, reflects the glorious English weather of November. You can find her website here:

Laura and I once again couldn't decide on a picture so we both picked one, that seemed fair. So I picked another one. I may throw a tantrum anyway.

Artist of the Month - Eveline Tarunadjaja

I've been a fan of this lady's work for quite a while now and also enjoy attempting to pronounce her name. It's even harder for a panda, especially a creepy one.

Here's a picture me and Laura could both agree on (I really like one of a girl with an octopus on her head, but Laura refused given her ridiculous phobia of tentacled sea creatures).
