Stuart Kolakovic illustrator + storyteller [ja ljubav te]

Another online collection of scribbles, drawings and ephemera by this recent Kingston graduate who won the 2007 New Blood award at the D&AD Competition.

His mini-comics are packaged in very inventive ways -- from art vending machines to presenting them inside record-sleeve slipcovers. Currently, his work is available from "The Travelling Man" comic store in Manchester or at his Etsy shop.

Gusle Player

The Gusle Player

This 8.5 wide X 5.5 inch tall, forest green screenprint is available at Art Bureau's Etsy shop. It sells for $15 U.S. (That's about £7.50 to you Limeys).
In case you're wondering, the instrument this lonely chap is playing is called a Gusle – a traditional Yugoslavian instrument that was often played to accompany the recitals of "epic poetry." Epic poetry played an important role in the peoples psyche of the Slav nations, most notably the Serbs, and is largely concerned with historical events and personages passed on from generation to generation.
