Visiting Zuza Krzysik’s site is a bit like stepping into a Zen garden. When you do get to the portfolio, the work is a clean, modern interpretation of European-Japanese art.  Style takes a sharp turn in the animation department – The Short Western in particular has a much more stylized look, which is not a bad thing since it contrasts well with the rest of the work.

Michael Newhouse specializes in infographic illustrations, particularly maps and diagrams. He does a splendid job at bringing flair to an otherwise boring subject. His logo work is also lovely; be sure to flip through them under the Logos tab.

Carina Crenshaw draws heavily from her design background to create design-inspired, urban infused imagery. Take some time to go through her design portfolios too; there are some very nice logo designs to be seen!
