LUVing Zoe!

“My illustrations are heavily pen and ink based, whilst incorporating photography and screen-printing throughout much of my work. By exploring the initially ordinary, I find inspiration in “everyday” architecture, objects, packaging, possessions and pop culture.”

Zoe More O’Ferrall a lovely new talent!

Chow Martin is

Chow Martin is.. Heist! Meaning the pseudonym is the combine efforts of twin brothers showing the illustration side of their work, while running a design studio for commercial assignments! Ingenious strategy!

Was just about ready to present this ‘new’ illustrator to the world — and caught up with the the facetious supercherie — while looking for a bio. Tada! Unmasked and now we get 2 for 1.

_______

Heist-Toronto is a boutique art direction, design, and illustration studio established in 2008 by Sean and Colin Chow. The twin brothers draw upon their combined experiences in the fashion, arts and cultural markets to create tailor-made concepts and aesthetics for both private and commercial clients, locally and worldwide.

Lovers Town

Lovers aka Jonathan Calugi is a veritable one man show. He creates modern, fresh vector collages and stylish, powerful type forms. His dense, mezmerizing patterns are completely engaging and leave you with the sense that there is always something new to find amidst the curves and angles of these intertwined compositions. The Italian illustrator’s type forms are based largely off of basic shapes, but with a sincere complexity that makes them fresh and accessible.
