A few months back I was asked to contribute some illos for this book. Looks like it’s due to hit the shelves in Autumn. The book is titled “Big Book of Contemporary Illustration” compiled and written by a swell fella named Martin Dawber and published by Batsford Books.
My contributions where a few of my Art Deco inspired illustrations.
Pre-orders available online at Amazon and the other usual suspects.
I’m looking forward to seeing what other cool stuff illustrators are doing out there in their attics, basements and pyjamas around the globe.
Description
Following on from the hugely successful “Big Book of Fashion Illustration”, the “Big Book of Contemporary Illustration” covers the broadest range of illustration today from digital drawing, pixelated pictures, Photoshop fantasies to the traditional techniques of sketching and painting from over 160 international artists. This is an essential sourcebook for any creative professional or student and all those who appreciate the world’s best illustration.
