Artist Research

Brezinski Ilya 

Brezinski Ilya is a Illustrator, graphic designer and tattoo artist from Minsk Belarus working and living in Saint Petersburg Russia. I discovered his work online when researching pointillism artists. 

His subject matter was the first thing to grab my attention, his work is very dreamy and surreal, his compositions are very well though out and pleasing to the eye. His work beckons you to look twice as you will notice something you didn't the first time. His use of tone is excellent, something I need to work on with my pointillism works, I will take inspiration from that.

Lex Wilson

Lex Wilson is an artist from Cambridge Uk currently based in Nottingham. All of his work is self directed and created in his spare time. He uses the same pens as me I noticed. 

His dot work style and processes are very similar to my own. his compositions though are better than mine and his use of occasional colour really adds to his pieces. I will experiment with colour in my works from now on and try to find a comfortable balance.

Jared Muralt

Jared Muralt is an illustrator and artist born in Bern, Switzerland. He is a self taught artist that is inspired by every day life. His subject matter varies from reportage to surreal elaborate mechanisms to dot work angler fish, and everything else in between.  His mark marking and draughtsmanship skills caught my attention when looking for artists. His work has a confidence to it that really comes across. His pointillism pieces are beautiful and his sketchbook works are fantastic, I will take inspiration from him and continue to research him in future.

Miguel Endara

 Miguel Endara earned his art degree from Miami University Florida. His pointillism/dotwork pieces are incredibly life like and detailed, he really has mastered the art of stippling! His pieces are composed of millions of little dots which he counts and gives an accurate estimation of the total dots used. His works take him sometimes up to a year to complete and are drawn at a very large scale. His work has inspired me to continue to pursue my pointillism until I reach a standard when I my work is comparable to his.
