First, we want to talk about the very busy guy, Jared Nickerson currently residing in Seattle, WA. I don’t know if the rain has anything to do with it but this guy is making moves and has developed an amazing style. Jared is a 27 year old who focuses mainly on illustration. He owns J3Concepts, his design firm, who is working with some big name clients like Adidas and k2 snowboards. Jared also is a co founder of BloodSweatVector.com and is a contributing artist for the amazing European based clothing brand laFraise. If you haven’t been to laFraise to check out there fresh catalogue or submitted your designs in there contest, do it! Jared has some great vision and detail in his work and we can’t wait to hear more about him in the future.
Now we got Victor Ortiz (aka iconblast), from Medellin, Columbia. Victor does some very cool graphic design. His concepts and composition are flawless. We have a some skateboarders over here at makemealive and love his deck designs for Nomad. The color theory and illustrations are awesome! Keep it up ICONBLAST!

Next we want to focus on Radosław Pierzak of BalsamStudio from Poland. Balsam Studio is a full service graphic design studio. They do everything from web development to full identity package design. This company brings an amazing balance to every project. There concepts from print to web involve a complete strategic approach and consistency across the project. They have worked with clients like BP and others around the world. If you are looking for an amazing brand. Look at BalsamStudio.

Finally we want to check out Fil Dunsky from Khabarovsk, Russia. Fil is an extremely talented illustrator. His work is filled with detail and a great sense of humor. I feel like when I see Fil’s work I will always know who it is. The individuality and style so unique. When you are looking for some creativity in a project I would reach out to Fil.
