Ivica Stevanovic is an artist from Serbia . All I can say is that he ’s a mad superstar of the surreal….and I like it . I like it a lot . In this heading , we ’ll tour his strange world .
In addition to his awesome images in graphic novel , he has also make for on numerous chiildren ’s books as well as cover for various publishing company . I first come across his amazing picture while working on the Steampunk Reloaded anthology with my married man , Jeff VanderMeer . I am golden enough to be married to a man who shares my artistic esthetic . Jeff is the one who introduced me to Ivica ’s work .
How can you look at this and not experience something creeping up your back ? This is one of several pieces from a projection called Graphocalypse .
Makes Mickey Mouse ears look sinister , does n’t it ?
This is Babylon City . Stevanovic uses images from famous picture and makes them his own . A similar proficiency used by Scott Eagle who I profiled over the holidays .

Wisdom Tree , from Graphocalypse :
Signs in the Sky – I want to do a book with this as the blanket . Would n’t you buy it ?
