Artboook
Artboook is a graphic artist from Germany, but living more in the internet with his numerous online art pages, directories and gift shops. He travelled several years through North America, seeing almost every US state or Canadian province and some of Mexico. So it was quite a natural consequence, that most of his motifs in paintings, photos or other art media describe the cities, landscapes, people, events and other aspects of America. One of his online stores by the name of Star Shop America is doing just that in a comprehensive way, offering t-shirts, posters, mugs, cards and other printed items with motifs from the USA and Canada, not only presenting the big cities like New York, Chicago or L.A., but also smaller towns like Tombstone, Arizona or Key West, Florida. His landscapes look great on posters, with all the national parks and natural wonders of North America, featuring Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Niagara Falls and many more. But he also presents other issues like US politics with Clinton and Bush, special American events like 911, international themes, social issues and 3 art sections with a feature of his paintings, photos, collages, cartoons and other art styles. Aside from those activities he is a member of many artnets and art directories, blogs, community forums and webrings.
