Hannah Stouffer
Blood Lust, Love and Gore
Los Angeles-based illustrator Hannah Stouffer is one of the most inspiring and prolific artists I have come across. Having had the opportunity to catch a show of hers at a gallery out west several years ago, I have been in awe of her work and productivity ever since. Take a bit of time to explore her site, she has a lot of gorgeous offerings in a variety of mediums, in her personal work as well as her commercial work.
From her website:
“With an infatuation for icons and images that reflect and categorize historical eras, genres and subcultures, her work is an opulent, elegant and beautifully intricate mixture of illustration and design. Her densely-packed compositions consciously recall classical elements from our past and combine them with our modern attractions, creating cohesive yet opposing array’s of imagery and embellishment. She focuses on the contrasts between periods in time, subcultures and social trends- and merges them together with a high regard for traditional decoration.”
So hard to choose just a few images, but here’s a peek:
