Dan Witz

This artist is one of my favourite street artist, as he isnt your normal kind of street artist. He has a more clasical aproach by using oil paints to create his artwork. This gives a more detailed image and gives the street art more subtletey. The ideas and concepts fit in well into the enviroments that he is painting in to.

Handy signs

A clever balance of traditional graphic styles and methods of application with a narrative sensitivity. Realey pop art style of illustration, the colours are bright and bold.

Jon Burgeman

One of the most inspiring illustrators. The shapes that he creates for his characters link really well together, i really like how he collages his drawings. This then gives his artwork to spread over things like a pattern. His use of colour is used to really good effect. He choses about 3-4 colours and uses them well to create patterns of his characters.

Polaroid Mirror

I think this piece is quite smart in it context. Some products have a way of cosying up to you. You feel there is something both subtle and humorous about them. Colin O'Dowd beatifully designed polaroid mirror is one of them. I feel i should take relevance of product design into my abilities of graphic design, I feel i could get good results by using them hand in hand.

Non Format

Non-Format is a creative team comprising Kjell Ekhorn (Norwegian) and Jon Forss (British). They work on a range of projects including art direction, design and illustration for music industry, arts & culture, fashion and advertising clients. They also art direct Varoom: the journal of illustration and made images. Some of the best layouts comprising of illustration photography and type. I really like how the layouts use negative space really effectiveley.

Katy Lemay

I really like Katy Lemay work as it uses a vast amount of medias throughout the illustration. The way the imagery uses colour effectively. I also feel that the illustrations has a real depth in how the imagery is constructed.
