JAMES ROPER: HYPERMASS
I usually try to avoid posting the really popular pieces on behance but I just instantly fell in love with this awesome series by James Roper (which has received a lot of attention over at behance). Check the whole series here.

JUSTIN MALLER: ECHOES
Amazing use of shape and colour here from Justin Maller. Feels very sci-fi/retro futuristic – which suits me just fine right now. Check out more of Justin's work here.

RYAN UHRICH: DIMENSIONAL ANALOGS
I've seen a lot of abstract geometric shape compostions similar to these, although these are a lot more kick-ass than the others I've seen. I've even been delving a little into i myself. There's a strong astronomical vibe, it almost feels religious in some way too. Anyway I'm going to try and post more of these because I like them, if there's a particular name of this style someone please tell me, in the meantime I'm going to label this as astrogeometric. These are part of a series I found on Ryan's behance page. Check out the rest here.

ATELIER OLSCHINSKY: OUTPOST
Some truly epic abstract landscapes of a futuristic world – that's my take on these pieces by Viennese studio Atelier Olschinsky anyway. I posted some of Atelier's work a while back and it's amazing to see how much their style has developed. The detail is incredible. See more of their work here.

MAYA FIALA GRAU: MAKE THINGS HAPPEN

Some beautiful photography turned into some simple abstract digital art. Maya's desciption:
exquisitley surreal blending and mirroring of the female form.I love how the simple technique of "mirroring" has produced such amazing results, always best to keep it simple. Check out more of Maya's work here.

REVOK: DIAMONDS
Some cool use of unwanted materials here by Revok. I'm sure these would have been as fun to construct as they are nice to look at. I love the idea of making art from what would be generally regarded by the greater population as rubbish. Check out more work and other treats on Revok's blog.

MATTHIAS HEIDERICH: SPEKTRUM EINS
I've been loving this style of photography lately, at first glance it looks like some sort of vector wizardry, but then on closer inspection it becomes more obvious that it's photographic. See more of Matthias's work here and I should point out this is my second post of Matthias's work, see the other post here.

TRI▲NGLE from Onur Senturk on Vimeo.
An awesome little piece of motion graphics here by Onur Senturk. He's done plenty of other amazing work too, check his site here.DORUK KUMKUMOGLU: STRUCTURES
A couple of really nice shots here by Doruk Kumkumoglu, I love abstract they are – yet I'm able to depict what's in each image. Very nice style. Check more of Doruk's work here.

ANDREW K GREEN: PHYSICAL MODELS
Andrew's description:
Collection showcasing physical models from academic projects between 2004-2010Beautifully abstract work. There many more examples right here.
LMD NEW WORK: SEVENFORTYSEVEN
This is a piece I've been working on for the last six months or so. It is an abstract representation of my recent experiences abroad in Germany, but I prefer the viewer to interpret it in their own way. I also see this as a possible start of a new series that explores the contrast between symbols of power and symbols of anti-power. Hopefully more to come.
POMESONE: CANVAS ART
I found this piece by Pomesone on Behance. I really like it because it reminds me a lot of work by Nawer, which I love, actually utilises a 3rd dimension as well as artificial 3D graphics on a 2D surface. On his profile Pomesone explains "I often try to open the frame of the object to go into space".
I hope to be getting back into my garage soon to play around with my paints on similar styled artwork (I'll probably just stick to a 2D canvas for now though).
Check out more of Pomesone's work on behance.
EDRIC UREEL: GEOGRAPHIX VOL.2
An awesome abstract piece by Edric Ureel. Part of a series of equally awesome abstract pieces that use 2 dimensional objects to create sense of depth. His sense of composition use of blending is excellent and gives the piece a nice feel. He has essentially taken simple polygonal objects and layered/blended them to create complex shapes and patterns. Edric's use of colour in highlights and shadows also emphasises the depth and gives the pieces life. Check out the whole series here and flickr page here.
DORIAN GOURG: ADAHY
French artist/designer Dorian Gourg as put together some incredible illustrations. The use of geometric shapes with patterns gives these pieces a loof/feel that I've never seen before. The centre piece feels synthetic and devoid of life but is layered over landscape photography – giving some of the pieces a sublime feel. The complete absence of colour here works really well, emphasising the cold lifelessness of the illustration and perhaps even generating mystery/intrigue. Check the whole series here and Dorian's site here.

FERNANDO OCAMPO: 3D GRAFOS
Some more awesome digital/3D work from Fernando Ocampo. Some time ago I posted a short animation by Fernando – I have seen many times since and still love it. I thought it would be worth checking his folio again more recently – it was worth it. I've seen a few examples of graffiti styled art making its way into the digital 3D world but I think this is the best I've seen so far. The colour, abstract shapes and presentation really bring these pieces together. I love the depth of field too. Check out more of Fernando's work here and website here.
STUART SINCLAIR: FLOW (MUSIC: APHEX TWIN)
It's great to finally be back posting again. It's been a couple of weeks since the my last post which has been way too long. At some point since my last post I came across this incredible piece of animation by Stuart Sinclair. According to Stuart this animation
"[is] done using "Trapcode 3d stroke" a "mirror" and "Trapcode sound keys" to react to the audio. The camera movement is keyframed. Then differen't color maps on top. So to clarify it' s half Expressions in after effects and half keyframed."
In a similar way to other artistic music videos I've posted I think Stuart has visually expressed this track to a tee. In addition, when watching this I feel as though I've never seen anything like it before. Very inspirational. Check out some of Stuart's other work on his youtube page.
ANDREAS LEONIDOU: WHAT IS DEATH?
Andreas Leonidou has posted an interesting series exploring the concept of death. Throughout the series there is a feeling of narrative as the skull becomes more abstracted, possibly symbolising different takes on death. As a fan of skulls in art I was instantly drawn in, but seeing the development throughout the series I found more depth and intrigue. I think Andreas has done a great job at using a single image in different ways to keep interest within the viewer. See more of Andreas's work here.
ROBERTO GAMITO: IT'S A NEW BEGINNING
I've been mega busy lately – hence the absence of posts. I thought I'd make some time this morning before too much more time slips away. I spotted this piece by Roberto Gamito on behance. I think it sits nicely between texture and illustration, with its mix of abstract shapes and recognisable imagery. I think this piece would look great printed on a massive canvas. Nice work Roberto! Check out more of Roberto's work here.
