- I've admired his work for a while since I saw a few of his books that were published by Nobrow, as I really liked his blocky, colourful screen-printed style. I was looking at illustrators for the NY times and his really stuck out to me. Although he's only done a few that I could find, I really enjoy the digital but still organic looking effect they have with the tapered lines and the crayon(?) textures. The colour palette is limited in both images I've found but that doesn't make the illustrations any less powerful and emotive.

- His illustrations seem really intriguing and relevant to my practise and this project in particular because a lot of them look like they've been screen printed. His work uses clever perspective, colour and utilises all of the limited space he's given to create effective and immediately compelling illustrations. Even in the brighter, more vibrant ones theres a really sensitive quality to them, I really enjoy the feeling that they give you a little look into a quiet aspect of someone or somethings private life.
