Nostalgia for summer already! The beautiful photography of Louisa Rose has got us all missing the British sunshine on our face as we enjoy tea and scones!

Every now and again you stumble upon something that really takes your breath away. Thats how we felt when we found photographer Paul Phung. Keep your eyes peeled, great things will come from this fella, and to top it all of, one of the nicest guys you are ever likely to meet, enjoy…

Last Sunday Battersea Carbooty was fan - bloody - tastic… droool. This Sunday was cold, wet and not nice… sign of things to come with the nights drawing in!

Abi Daker Specialises in fashion and music illustration, but at the moment she is having a dabble with Victorian themes…and boy do we reckon she should carry on with doing what she is! The historial feel to her images are just perfect and we would very much want to see those on Ballad HQ’s wall!

We are having a bit of a love affair with the work of Jaymie O’Callaghan from All That Glitters we heart her outfit illustrations, but so much more is waiting for for you over on her blog… vintage bows, pandas and Russian dolls, mmm

Sketchy, Dreamy, and ultra feminine. Linnea Mesko shows us what she’s good at. And we mean VERY good. We love her file detail and shading and oh how we enjoy a good illustrator at Ballad Of. Make sure you check out her Flickr Ladies and Gentlemen.

Tina Mali puts us in mind of a modern day Kate Bush. Kate Bush, but with a Eastern feel to the Her melodic style and atmospheric music. Ballad Of…are giving you a sneaky peak of one of her videos on here and some of her latest shots. She is definitely keeping us mesmorized and hooked.
