Arty Friday 2021: 10 Young Illustrators You Need to Know
Black Friday is now Arty Friday… for a year as artistic as it is eco-responsible!
For this exceptional moment, Artsper wants to introduce you to 10 young contemporary artists every day! Today, we roll out the red carpet for artists who work in drawing. If these works blow you away, you can use the code ARTYFRIDAY21 to get a 5% discount on the entire Artsper website, through November 29th, 2021.
Whether in ink, gouache, watercolor, pen or pencil, drawing is a noble graphic art which is at the basis of all artistic training. Here are 10 works to celebrate the plurality and the richness of these young illustrators’ talent…
1. Pauline Di Valentin
Pauline Di Valentin draws flamboyant landscapes in pastel tones in her ink drawings. Stroll through her imaginary scenes where marbled architecture and abundant vegetation will bring you an air of renewal…

2. Enaer
The dynamic and spontaneous works of Enaer give life to anonymous characters with raw and graphic features. The artist’s talent for graffiti is clear in her inspiring urban drawings.

3. Eleonore Deshayes
Éléonor Deshayes captures the shapes, patterns and textures encountered during her travels and then transcribes them onto paper. A new universe is then revealed, with fragments of landscape, as if it had been a decor created from scratch…

4. Alice de Miramon
Let yourself be surprised by the talent and imagination of Alice de Miramon! Her representations of women through the jungle and dreamlike worlds are a real invitation to travel… and will lull you into a nonchalant tranquility.

5. Gabrielle Rul
Through her delicate and enchanting drawings, Gabrielle Rul transports us to a dreamlike world from which emerges a feeling of hope and sincere melancholy. Follow the adventure of her thoughtful and endearing characters…

6. Jéko
Jéko expresses in color his emotions, his memories and his desires. His work, done with colored and spontaneous pencils, retraces an almost childlike universe but a sobering thought!

7. Ji-Yun
What do you see, hybrid objects or abstract forms? Whatever your interpretation, these works show an incredible harmony! Influenced by the principle of Yin and Yang, Ji-Yun builds her work around an unparalleled balance.

8. Liz West
The multidisciplinary artist Liz West plays with colors to provoke heightened sensory awareness in her viewers. Don’t hesitate to look up close to experience her works between dance and light.

9. Milena Ferreira
Combining engraving and collage, Milena Ferreira revisits the aesthetics of the ruin as a place of memory and urban scene. These poetic compositions will take you on an exploration of the here and the elsewhere…

10. Emanuele Ravagni
Emanuele Ravagni‘s artistic universe explores a variety of immeasurable elements, but always seeks to connect the formless with visually recognizable forms. Let your eyes get lost in his fascinating work.

Though our Arty Friday drawing selection ends here, you can further discover our selections of artists for painting and photography.
The Artsper Arty Friday weekend closes tomorrow, so keep an eye out for our final selection!
