Loui Jover is an artist from Australia. He really is a remarkable artist and his work to me is really "pop" meaning it's something people love right now. Check him out at this website. His drawings are ink on vintage book pages. It's really pretty fun and I have to think that he is a romantic at heart because his drawings seem to capture romance, passion, and creativity of being human. He loves umbrellas, cameras, special moments, and dancing. What's not to love about that?? Here's what he has to say about his work.
"Right now I like making ink drawings on adhered together sheets of vintage book paper, there is a fragility to these images that I find interesting (as if the wind may blow them away at any moment) and the hand drawn stark black lines against the intricate printed words of the book pages offer a strange fusion and depth that seems to give the images a kind of 'meaning' and back story, even though unconnected in a contrived way. I never pick the image for the pages or visa-versa they just collide as chance permits, any meaning they may have is purely created by the observer and their own imaginings."
