I usually post about current artists but I couldn't pass this up. While doing some research today for work I came across Alphonse Mucha. Inextricably linked to the evolution of the Art Nouveau movement his work is so beautiful. I can see his style as a heavy influence on many illustrators today, and for good reason.

I really enjoy the personal work of Jeremy Prasatik. Trees are a reoccurring theme in his design and his color palette has a nice retro feel to it. His commissioned work is not bad at all either.

Tiffany Bozic creates images drawn from the natural world but layers her own inner worlds wit it. The flora and fauna look almost from an Audubon book yet there is a slightly off aspect that gives the work a little edge. Check out her great style here.

This is an image from Jan Fassbender and it is both beautiful and sad. Jan's landscape photography is amazing but at the same time I get a foreboding feeling. I am not sure if it's the color or the scale or emptiness, whatever it is these images grab me.

Clayton Cubitt x Tom Carden, originally uploaded by twenty2woblog.

This collaboration project resulted from a nice use of Processing and photography. Tom Carden's work has been generated with Processing based on attractors and particles creating the smoke-like patterns. Clayton Cubitt then took those images and directed his models to compose his images to flow with Carden's work. The results are spectacular. Here is a better explanation of this process.
