Goni Montes




Loving these drawings by Goni Montes. Everything looks like that dream you're glad you had, but thankful it wasn't real. (Like the dreams I had while taking malaria pills.) With a refined line and a great sense of color. Check out his blog and website.

[Thanks to Mark Braught for the heads up.]

Goñi comes to Irene from a from a former teacher of mine from Portfolio Center, Mark Braught and Goñi is a former student of mine from SCAD Atlanta. What a honor for Goñi to be on The Art Department, it's like winning an award without entering. Congrats Goñi!

Goñi's work is brilliant, ethereal and inspired, truly from the heart of a great artist. (He’s a really nice guy too)

Sam Weber seconded the "nice guy" comment via Twitter. Illustration is awesome -- more often than not, good illustrators are nice, passionate, hard working peoples.
