Over the last year, Polish designer and illustrator Janusz Jurek has been exploring different forms of generative illustration as it relates to the human form. Some of my favorites are collected into a series title Papilarnie where bundled lines that look like lightning or roadways on maps converge into 3D arms, feet, and other incomplete bodies. You can see more of his generative illustration work over on Behance. More

El estilo pictórico de Domenico Gnoli (1933-1970) es inusual y atractivo, plano y brillante, una combinación de surrealismo contenido y candidez. Cerradísimos planos de una trenza, el nudo de una corbata, el cuello de una camisa femenina, el plano cenital de una cama de matrimonio en la que se adivina la silueta de dos cuerpos ...

British illustrator Kate Baylay renders dark and melancholy scenes with delicate line work. In her series of Russian fairytale illustrations, the artist hides elaborate patterns in every aspect of the drawings — from the characters' clothing to tapestries, architecture and rugs in the background.

Take a look at some of her work after the jump!
