Joanne Nam

 

Joanne, real name Seohyun Nam, was born in Seoul, South Korea. As a teenager she moved to the USA with her family. He attended the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California and now lives and works in Los Angeles. Among his passions are horror films and among his favorite artists Lucien Freud and Sandro Botticelli.

The protagonists of Joanne Nam's oil paintings on wooden panels are young girls, asleep or dreaming, immersed in a dark and wild forest, the surreal materialization of their anxieties. A leaden color palette defines the backgrounds, against which the reflections of light and the lunar complexions of the women stand out. Joanne's works have a classic touch reminiscent of the Pre-Raphaelites and in particular the famous painting by John Everett Millais depicting the drowning of Ophelia, Hamlet's fiancée.

Martin Claus, 1880-1956 (at least that's what we think, but it might be not totally correct), german illustrator. We don't know much about his life, we can try to stitch together a timeline of his career from the dates of some of his works

 The earliest example of his illustration is from a 1919 edition of the satirical magazine Meggendorfer Bl ätter, he would have been 31 years old, so it's sure that there are earlier works, but there's no evidence of them. Probably he was employed by the magazine as a staff artist. He had a different range of styles and techniques used all with technical and creative success .
