Interdisciplinary illustrator and visual Ju Schnee is known for her intensely bright, neon-colored, illustrations and lettering art that are all about those ’90s vibes – but with an added, contemporary twist. Originally from Austria, Schnee studied Information Design (BA) and Communication (MA) in her hometown of Graz.

Having moved to Berlin in 2017, she launched her own studio this past year, located in the hip Berlin Mitte. Schnee’s work is often created digitally and includes typographical elements. But she also paints murals in public spaces and creates engaging animated GIFs and animations.

“I am in love with shapes, colors and textures,” she further relayed in an interview with Ballpitmag. “Bauhaus, Memphis, Japanese Graphic Design and Surrealism were the most formative movements for my work,” she adds. “That’s why I work mostly with abstract and vibrant elements. Whether it’s an animation, a mural or an installation. I incorporate my shapes in every piece of my work. For me, it’s magical to tell a story just with abstract elements and special textures.”

“I am highly inspired by surreal artists such as Ernst, Magritte or Miro,” she adds. “It’s always nice to look back and realize the cleverness and finesse of these artists. I love the irony and metaphoric messages they played with and that’s also something I always try to incorporate. Also, I like to look at the current trends, like to stay up to date through art festivals or talks and go to galleries.”

Like most illustrators, his creative process includes a lot of planning ahead, with his illustrations beginning with some sketches. Brookes then inks whatever parts he needs in black, and scans his work, after which he colors it in Photoshop, using a Wacom.

“My work has evolved quite a lot since I first started illustrating many, many moons ago,” he remarked in an interview with Inky Goodness. “Initially my work focused on quite heavy textures, juxtaposed with naive shapes and figures. Over the years it changed, evolving to include more dramatic lighting, a bolder more contrasting use of color, often utilizing a limited palette of 3-5 colors, and more polished figurative work.”

And while commercial illustration is his full-time gig, he also enjoys working on more personal projects.“Working without a brief can be pretty liberating and it’s a great way to experiment without time pressures or any restrictions,” he notes.

You can follow Brookes on Instagram, where he shares his work quite regularly.

Don’t take it from us. An established artist and art director, Tarka’s clients include giants like Apple, Nike, LG, Samsung, Audi, and Google. Which makes the fact that he’s self-taught all the more incredible. “I’m fully self-taught,” he stressed in an interview with Medium, adding that he studied economics and dropped out of school after obtaining his Bachelor’s degree. “I didn’t even think about doing a Master’s degree,” he admits.

“I’m a really horrible drawer,” he went on to say, “so I always start the with 3D. Colors and textures are usually the last step for me and there’s a lot of mixing in that stage. I’ve got a selection of my 30–35 favorite kind of materials and I try to mix them with colors and textures to get the right results.”

His inspiration comes mainly from architecture, which he admits to being drawn to from a very young age. “The super realistic and sci-fi designs that were dominating the 3D scene back then didn’t appeal to me, so I decided to move to a bit more of an illustrative approach,” he says.

Take a look at some of his unique designs:

“Being a graphic designer in the first place, I’ve also always been drawn to abstract and experiments in general,” Rainaud explained in an interview with the Ohh Deer blog, talking about the thought process behind her project.

“As far as I remember, before creating Malavida, I started playing with textures and visual effects for my graphic design projects while I was in school,” she says. I truly wanted to, one day, be able to build my own identity, based on the things I like and the way I am as a person. This trippy yet dark vibe has always been a part of my life, so I guess that my style and designs had to convey these aspects, in order to stay as true to myself as possible.”

Each piece starts with a mix of different types of paints, inks, and materials to create a base movement and vibe. Next, Rainaud digitalizes the artwork through a scanner or a camera, after which comes her absolute favorite part: post-production. “This third step is all about movements enhancements and adding all these signature vibrant colors,” she says. “To achieve this effect, I usually work with algorithms, 3D software such as Cinema 4D and of course Photoshop.”

The result is something between an oil spill and a volcanic eruption. Whatever it is, we want in on the action.

“I’ve finished bachelor studies in Graphic Design at S.P. University, then I enrolled and finished master studies in Animation at Faculty of Applied Arts in Belgrade,” said the Bosnian creative in an interview with Ballpit Magazine.

Now he shares his art on his Instagram page where you can follow his progress. Focused mainly on digital art, his art is minimal and relies on shapes and contrasts; and his videos loop endlessly, making for a hypnotic affect. In other words: he cuts to the chase.

“Digital art was created as a necessity of modern society,” he says. “Over time I’ve adapted to the new medium such as Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects.” But though his art is made with the aid of the computer, he also enjoys drawing by hand, especially with graphite.

“I’m spending time discovering Berlin, and getting involved in the artistic scene,” she told Inky Goodness. “Coming here has been a complete change of surroundings. All of this and a fresh pair of eyes will no doubt influence my illustrations. I feel ready to accept this exciting new challenge and work on new and exciting collaborations.”

Judging by her rich portfolio and solid clientele, which includes giants like Google, Siemens, Time Out, and The Telegraph, other people are just as excited to work with her. “Alongside my client based work I am always working and developing my personal portfolio,” she stressed.

But though now wholly dedicated to illustrating, her first taste of the industry was working with clients on various graphic design projects. “However, drawing has been a great passion of mine ever since I was a young child,” she says, admitting that: “It took me some time before I realized that it could do it professionally, and make it a part of my everyday life.”

“Shir started working as a freelance designer from his parents’ basement at the age of 16, and his career took a flight after he moved to Tel Aviv,” his website claims. “There he worked with several creative studios, with Promo and other startups. For the past 3 years, Gal is leading the design at Lemonade, making home insurance a better experience. In addition, Gal is consulting and helping entrepreneurs establishing design thinking. He has given talks and workshops for companies and institutes such as Bezalel Academy.”
