Studio Brief 3: Contemporary Print

Atelier Bingo

Kate Gibb

DR. ME

All three of these illustrators use collage in their print making processes (either produced with screen print or risograph). I like that all 3 of these have a slightly experimental approach with often limited colour. Its nice to see how Kate Gibb and DR.ME use printmaking as a side to their more commercial practice - but it possible to see how the printmaking feeds into the commercial work

Study Task 2: Editorial

Saul Steinberg

Minimal, graphic - simple - inventive. Uses visual metaphor extensively. Also just has a very nice approach to drawing (Line quality etc)

Chen Winner

Nice colours, Interesting use of shade - dark and light. minimal colours overlayed - creating more colours. While I think some are a bit twee - some have more to them.

Dominic Kesterton

Graphic, sharp illustrations. Editorial illustration only makes a small part of his practice. Use of gifs (new york times) is interesting.
