Stumbleupon has done it again. This time I stumbled on the site of the jaw-droppingly talented Canadian artist, Nimit Malavia, and I couldn’t be happier. He resides in Ottawa, Ontario, where he creates his graphite and paint wonders that are gorgeous in every line stroke and color splash. His style reminds me of James Jean with a little touch of Alphonse Mucha. And he’s already gotten recognition from his peers, having recently (January 2011) won the Silver Medal from the Society of Illustrators for his piece “&”. Take a look at his site and blog, and tell me that you don’t agree that this guy has some talent! And if you still need convincing, take a look at one of my favorite drawings of his, The Little Things. Didn’t I tell you?! He’s part of the “A Taste Of Things To Come” group show at the Spoke Art Gallery in San Francisco, which will be open until August 25, 2011.
