Jason Thielke’s architectural portraits

See below for some excellent artwork by Jason Thielke, an American artist who has received a Fine Arts degree from Northern Illinois University School of Art. Thielke works in various mediums and his artwork is an excellent mix of design, illustration, acrylic painting and laser cutting/etching. Thielke uses minimal color and intricate line work to render the (predominantly female) portraits: The figure is made up of contours, exploratory lines and shapes which create interesting patterns. Thielke combines strong lines with smooth curves and manages to create an impression of emotion and spatial depth.
