What happens when you combine watercolors, surrealism, and some insane color palettes? You get Lou Benesch and her insane portfolio of artwork. Viewing Lou’s work is almost like entering an entirely new world, with creatures you’ve never seen before accompanied by a strangely calming energy. Partly folklore, partly esoteric, partly just plain cool – Lou’s work is some of the most mesmerizing art we’ve come across in recent times, especially in regard to the subject matter. If you have any interest in the occult or just generally out-of-the-box artwork – Lou’s work is right up your alley!
Some of our favorites of hers come from her Inktober 2022 series, which is a true testament to her skill as an artist as it seems like it was a full 31 days of incredible, jaw-dropping artwork. You can see a few of our favorites below, although it was very hard to choose just 5 artworks to feature when everything’s so good!
