Steve Johnson - Empty Kingdom - Art Blog
Steve Johnson is an illustrator based out of San Francisco. "One of my objectives as an artist is to bridge conflicting views by revealing shared concerns and common ground. The basic desire to find and maintain security, whether in a home, job, or relationship, in a forever shifting landscape, can create more losers than winners. Using a cast of chickadees, rats, and hummingbirds, my current work navigates the gray areas and middle grounds inhabited by animals with competing interests."

monica zeringue - empty kingdom - art blog
Monica Zeringue is an illustrator who is based out of New Orleans, Louisiana. "My drawings are all self-portraits. I use images of myself, often reduced to a prepubescent form, in multiples. The girls exist in a world devoid of any reference to time or location, as in a partially recalled dream or memory. I am exploring identity, as I return myself back to a time of possibility: still innocent, but at the brink of change. But, as in the workings of memory, where time is compressed, stretched out, folded over and rearranged, these girls shift between prepubescent and fully mature, sometimes in the same work."
