For the past couple of months, Justin Emerson has been drawing a different "Lunchbot" on his wife and step-son's lunch bags each day. He warns: "This is what happens to underemployed dads/husbands who mostly work from home. Clever creativity or cautionary tale?" See the entire Lunchbots series at http://disposabledrawings.wordpress.com

My drawings begin with one layer, one color, one saturated ink line or blur.Watching layers grow, blocking out and rooting areas, seeing what comes out, how pieces fit together. Designing in marker and pencil form, a flat deep imaginary world.Images stem from the things that keep me alive. Things that I might be lacking in my life, I substitute on paper. Living in gardens, a telepathic world, the equality of all things, stability and magic.

My work is a mixture of my life experiences and interests, combining my love of cultural, personal, and traditional histories with contemporary issues of gender. How do we look at each other? At ourselves? As a young woman, I am intrigued by what it means to be a woman. I have been exploring traditional and nontraditional materials to examine these issues. Using whatever materials I can get a hold of, I find a way to make them tell a story.

Can you say detail? As a graphic designer and fine artist, I love detailed macro work and I illustrate cat portraits in near-photographic realism with colored pencil. The extremely detailed faces almost fool the eye… capturing every hair, each whisker and especially the eyes. Not many
artists cater to cat-lovers, and there are 88 million cat owners out there.

Poul A. Costinsky was born in former USSR. He mostly paints oil on canvas, but sometimes uses other media like Japanese ink on paper, acrylics, spray paints, and even photo camera. His art reflects on human condition in our hectic age, the nature of beauty of body, soul and nature around us. His art credo comes as a quote from a Russian writer Leo Tolstoy, who, once asked how to become a real artist, answered: "if you can help it, don't". Perhaps Poul just cannot help it.
