The Art Of Matteo De Longis

(Via)

Matteo De Longis is an Italian illustrator, operating under the guise of Kamen Studio, which is currently under construction for it's fourth iteration, titled V4/Vox. Matteo's pieces are highly stylized, inspired by some of the best contemporary comic book artists in Italy today, especially Alessandro Barbucci and Barbara Canepa, the artists behind Sky Dolls.

Some artists tend to focus on center genders as their main subjects, and De Longis definitely has an affinity for the feminine side, creating plenty of pinup style art with a distinctly graphic (Not in the adult fashion) flair. Using a style built on a foundation of lineart, Matteo regularly experiments with different levels of rendering complexity, ranging from flat to more painterly, while always retaining a stylish edge. Check out more of his work after the break, and stay tuned for the opening of his newest iteration of Kamen Studio sometime soon.
