Khuong Le - Leonard
- Illustration/animation designer from Melborune, Australia
- I follow him in on Behance and love his project "Waiting"
- "In a busy society, our life is a continuity of waiting. We wait for transportation, work, food and people. I realised wherever you go, there are people waiting."
- In response he produces cool line-illustrations with eccentric pastel colouring, but I am particularly drawn to the small animations within the piece;
little movements of the hand, or background bring any drawing to life in a subtle yet professional way - making it feel more realistic. Thus in turn more interactive and attention drawing for passers by.
*Noticed how the bus stop ads on way to uni are animated - on the Fanta bottle, the bubbles were rising - subtle yet enticing touch for passers by.





- Bold lines, complimented by linear shading and layering of colours.
Andrew Fairclough -
(Handsome Frank)

Sydney based Andrew Fairclough is a prodigiously talented illustrator, who's work blends graphical textures, an eye for detail and striking colour palettes.
He has a love for traditional print processes, including silkscreen/screenprint, risograph and even photocopying and despite creating his work digitally, is always keen to incorporate the imperfections and details found in these processes.
Tom Haugomat -
(Handsome Frank)
The use of light and a pastel cooler palette in Tom’s work is reminiscent of American illustration from the 1950's and ‘60s.
Using light as a tool for picking out specific detail, he casts beams upon cigarette smoke, snowy hilltops and windows to direct your eye to what you really need to see.
Whether it’s illustrating the curves of nature or the block symmetry of a big city, there is such effortless grace in what he does.

- Love the circular corners - similar to shape of apps on the dock
- Can imagine displaying the series on an illustrated phone, zoom in to each of the 'apps' to showcase it (interactive? video? gif?)
Jeremy Booth -
Jeremy Booth was born and raised in Louisville Kentucky, he still resides there today. Jeremy was fascinated with drawing as a young boy but as he grew older his interests shifted and he no longer pursued it. Years later his creative interests resurfaced as he pursued graphic design.
Being an admirer of photography Jeremy spends a lot of time studying light and harsh shadows. His work is inspired by his admiration and some have come to call his work “Vector Noir.”
Although Jeremy’s focus is illustration these days he still enjoys graphic design and often will combine both in his work.
Malika Favre -
(Handsome Frank)
London-based Malika’s work is incredibly popular, largely due to its instantly recognisable style, but also due to her incomparable skill at the art of simplifying down an image to its bear essentials and making it sing.
Malika concentrates on light: almost drawing with shadows. Dark as that sounds, her work is actually some of the brightest out there in terms of use of colour.
Her clients include The New Yorker, Vogue, BAFTA, Sephora and Penguin Books, amongst many others.
