Chicago artist

Verlustration

first caught my attention

when he did the cover

for Netherfriends

and Yomi's song

"DMT & Whiskey"

(pictured below). 

I've been following

his creations on Instagram

ever since. 

Blending oddball caricatures

with his own swirl

of surrealism,

all of Verlustration's pieces

seem inside their own world.

Not contained

within any particular

decade, but existing

inside a unique,

man-made dimension.

Equal parts Tim Burton

and deranged Pixar.

Be sure to follow

Verlustration for new pieces

on his Instagram page.

Although he hasn't featured

anything in a few weeks,

he recently posted

about gathering inspiration

from older pieces,

with more on the way,

closing with

"pardon my absence."
