Cedric Laquieze (I could say that name over and over) is an Amsterdam artist who works with natural materials (bones and insects) to create the unnatural. His animal skeletons covered in flowers caught my eye first but then I discovered his fairies and became a fan. Laquieze has a blog where he posts pictures of his work, but I'm not sure where you can purchase them. He participates in exhibitions throughout Europe so you'll probably have to make that trip. Seems like a good excuse to me. Foetus Flower Skeleton First Flower Skeleton Dog Flower Skeleton Cat Flower Skeleton Fairy Army Fairy Army Fairy Army Fairy 2012 Fairy 2012

Hernan Bas’ insects are coming of age at Perrotin, Tokyo.
For this recipe you’ll need some bean sprouts, one fish-head, a tablespoon of popcorn, one butterfly, some seeds, half-a-dozen seashells, some buttons, a watch and two dozen photographs found in an old flea market. Susana Blasco admits to having the soul of a sailor . She also owns up to being an artist, graphic designer, illustrator and razor sharpener. Susana has designed book covers, album covers, posters and all the other things graphic designers do. She also makes rather fabulous and imaginative artworks out of found photographs. Antiheroes is one of Susana’s many photographic projects. It began through trial and error, chance and experimentation where Susana placed everyday objects on top of old photographs to create surreal and slightly disturbing portraits. A slug becomes a woman’s smile, a girl embraces her sister with a crab tentacle, a woman’s head explodes into shoots, and a man’s head is eaten by confetti. I find these pictures quite irresistible, in large part due to Susana’s highly imaginative use of mundane props to create startling portraits from a seemingly unknown world. Susanna’s series Antiheroes is available as prints. ...

Some were recognizable members of living groups […]
