Travis Louie

August 26, 2009

 

This guy makes some of the most cutely obscure, curious portraits I’ve ever seen. They are so whimsical and fantastical, with a sort of old fashioned air about them. They remind me of so many things at once – the haunted house at Disneyland, a Series of Unfortunate Events, and those dreams you have where the creatures are strange and creepy, but cuddly and loving at the same time. I discovered Travis Louie by running across his recently released book  (aptly named Curiosities) at one of my favorite stores the other day and fell in love. Haven’t you?
