]]>First of all, his skill is impeccable. So if you’re someone who truly appreciates art that can be backed up with refined technique, Howlett has got you covered. You’ll never be left feeling like you’re not looking at something truly professional.
Next, his vision and style is something special. If you’re someone who needs to be inspired by an artist’s mission, you may fall in love with Howlett’s. While his goal’s are somewhat open to interpretation, it’s clear he’s someone that focuses on surrealist art that makes you think.
For instance, Howlett loves painting portraits of living human giants, and he often depicts lying down in the wilderness with the mountains. The paintings truly are something like you’ve never seen before, and they make you question what it’s trying to say. Perhaps we, too, are all giants in the real world—but in our own special way.

]]>Describing himself as a “romantic surrealist”, his paintings are inspired not only by the surrealist movement but by Art Nouveau, Belle Époque, Gothic, Renaissance, and the Victorian age.
Merriam’s paintings often present fantastical settings: a house harnessed to an elephant that is being ridden by a monkey; a winged butler presenting a tray filled with birds to a hungry cat.
According to the painter, nature plays a big role in his art. “My world was fashioned from the rawness of nature’s reality and the fanciful treatments of my perception,” he reflected once in an interview with Putsch.
According to Merriam, from a very young age he was drawn to the natural world: “Between sailing, fishing, and diving I had spent as much time in the water as I did out,” he recalled.
Water in particular is a common theme in his paintings. “Both my family and our community possessed a whimsical quality that remains in my art to this day,” stressed Merriam.
With over 45,500 followers on his Instagram alone, Merriam’s work is celebrated both online and offline. His work is exhibited throughout the United States and Europe. In one case, his paintings were shown alongside those of Salvador Dali. You’d want to take note.

]]>“My art represents a bewitching decomposition of nature, with macabre themes on the fringe of an absurd daydream,” artist shared with Bored Panda. “Inspiration finds me at the bottom of a teacup; floating on the colourful stream of a musical note; or dust particles exploding form a fallen leaf.”
The award-winning illustrator, painter, surrealist, and nyctophile adores Halloween, it’s her favorite time of the year. This October, just like last year, she will be participating in a Halloween-themed art challenge: The Drawlloween Challenge.
“This year I’ll be participating again and to get into the spirit of things, I’m launching a promo on my website with last year’s drawings,” she added. “Each of them are rendered in graphite pencil on A5-sized paper.”
