As an artist, what do you do when you think that you are not motivated enough to create art?

Read something, go on Netflix, listen to some music or simply start looking for what other artists are doing on the Internet? If you picked the last and some how stumbled upon our website then you are at the right place.

I'm no artist but I do love art and I do need my daily dose of some visual treat and I guess so do you. At E-junkie we make it a point to share the works of some talented artists on our blog and at times we even interview them. But with so many more talented artists out their at times it becomes difficult to feature each and everyone so we thought of starting this new feature where once a week we'll be featuring 10 artists on our blog.

Remember Mister Peebles? The guy with an interesting name and whose interesting art work we featured some time back on our blog. Mister Peebles draws animals dressed like humans or portraying a personality different from the regular ones. The drawings look simple but are fine examples of creativity and observation. There is a fun element too added to his works and that is the witty one lines along side his sketches.

"Mister Peebles' illustrations are created in North London using watercolor pencils,  pen and some ideas picked up at the zoo. He then creates & packs up each print himself for you to enjoy," he shares on his website.

There is no doubt that Mister Peebles' illustrations are engaging and successfully bring a smile on the viewer's face and the best thing they come as greeting cards that are fun to receive and give. Here is an interview with the artist. Read on to know more about him and the stories behind his work.

What do you usually do with your electronic items which are damaged or can not be used anymore? You probably dispose them off or store them for some time in the hope to get them repaired and then throw away. At the most, what one thinks of doing is to extract some usable parts from the gadget and discard the rest. Whatever you may be doing with the damaged electronics, I am sure you do not think of creating something totally new out of them.

What on Earth could be created with damaged gadgets! Is that what is going on in your mind? Tal Avitzur has the answer. 'Robot Sculptures' are what he creates. The cool robots he makes out of the scrap metal objects are so finely designed that one would easily assume them to be a part of the props used in some sci-fi movie.

Tal comes from a science oriented family background with all the siblings being engineers or doctors. But he has blended science and art together through his work. There are small details to be taken care of in his creations, which are a pleasure to watch. Read on the interview with artist and find out how he landed up into the world of robotics.

Alexandre Farto, better known as Vhils is a Portuguese street/graffiti artist who for his canvas uses abandoned and depleted buildings and creates large-scale portraits by way of scratching and chipping plaster off walls. His technique has been hailed as one of the most compelling approaches to art created in the street in the last decade.

Farto was born in 1987. He grew up in Seixal, near Lisbon and moved to London in 2007 to study at the Central Saint Martins (University of the Arts in London). He made his first graffiti at the age of thirteen, under the name of Vhils.

Bovey's work comprises of perfect geometric patterns and explores the tension between man and the environment in  relation to power, sacrifice, and survival. According to her, "My recent work is informed by our precarious relationship with nature in the twenty-first century, i.e., what we do to the environment with our super machines and technologies and what nature does back to us in reaction."

Bovey herself hand cuts her work using a cutting mat, X-acto knife and blades on a sheet of Chinese xuan (rice) paper backed with silk.
