Skipped heart beats is Irina Munteanu’s portfolio on Flickr. Irina is a very young photographer from Constanța, Romania. She currently is in highschool and getting ready for college, planning to stay in the photography world. Her photographs are expressing emotions or words she couldn’t shape or didn’t get the chance to speak. No doubt Irina Munteanu is developping a very subtle yet meaningful language.

Julian Landini is an art student, living in Berazategui, Argentina (south of Buenos Aires). His work is basically an attempt to celebrate the everyday life as a resource using sensuality, showing not only circumstances, but also people around him everyday. Julian Landini is not yet very well know but I’m quite sure his portfolio will quickly spread the internet… His drawings using pens, pencils, paint, watercolors or digital tools are terrific, with much personality and a very nice use of colors. The compositions are sometimes fun or sensual, but always beautifully living ! This is definitely our favorite portfolio for this early 2013.
Kelsey Cronkhite is a graphic designer and active blogger (@pinegateroad) based out of Savannah Georgia, where she is currently pursuing a MFA in graphic design at the Savannah College of Art and Design. I particularly like her hand-made style, always very clean and vibrant as well. No doubt Kelsey Cronkhite is a star on Pinterest.

Peony Yip is a very young amateur illustrator from Hong Kong. Drawing is her passion and she shows lots of various series of portrait and concept illustrations with young urban girls and animals. This is a very mature portfolio already published on different graphic blogs and with a style that could easily interest some fashion magazine…
Sannah Kvist is an artist, freelance photographer and photo editor based in Gothenburg and Stockholm, Sweden. She has great series of pictures shot on familiar landscapes or with friends. I noticed the series “all I own” in which the participants, who are students born in the 80′s, compose a sort of natural set with all they own. This reminds me of “Material world, a global family portrait” a book by Peter Menzel (1994) who captured the material life of average families around the globe, offering extraordinary images of families in front of their dwellings with all of their possessions. Sannah Kvist is refreshing this idea with an intimate look on students in her country.
Epiclayers is graphic designer Karen To‘s portfolio. She is a young designer, illustrator and form-maker who recently graduated from CalArts BFA graphic design program and we’re proud to tell you she is available for free-lance work! I particularly love her combination of colors, her different styles of illustration and the work she did with type creation. So, have a look, there’s also some great layout for motion design and some experiment stuff. I think it is interesting to discover young (but mature) portfolios among those renowned artists…
