Von Glitschka is a prolific, talented, and business-savvy illustrator. I’ve been totally fascinated by his plethora of websites, such as IllustrationClass.com, Vonster.com, and ArtBackWash.com. I’ve learned oodles from his illustration class site, but those lessons are downloads – I found a site who hosted one of them and wanted to show you an online version. He shows you the whole process, from paper to scanner to Illustrator to print and final output.

Vonster reveals how he created “Keyboard Characters” –>

Urban Dirty: Free Textures

Fabulous grungey photos in small, medium and large sizes. You can use them to make photoshop brushes, or to grunge up or texture your websites, illustrations and designs. Or they can be used as the basis for your own 3D textures (so long as you make them tileable!).

Utterly breathtaking animation by EB Hu. Serene and majestic, with a bit of a heartbreak at the end.

Kim Keever builds panoramas in aquariums, fills them with water, takes gorgeous photos and then ages them. Fantastic images, although the site is low on information.
