Evan Hecox

Evan Hecox is a Colorado-based artist and designer whose work portrays the feel of urban environments. Hecox is fascinated with the complexity of the urban landscape. Like snapshots or filmstrips, his art captures the everyday existence of the average person. Hecox has exhibited worldwide, including exhibitions in Los Angeles, London and Tokyo.
I think that Evans work is unique and interesting throughout, however his colours are limited and this makes it more recognisable to his work. His work has a comic book style to it and is not always bold is eye catching.

Chris Dent

Chris Dent

Chris Dent's work is technical and detailed which to me makes it less interesting. However I like they way in which he uses limited colour on random parts of his art as this makes it stand out and become more interesting. I think that this particular image is very intriguing as it presents two images (a city and a skull) but the skull is partially hidden, making the viewer pay more attention to fine detail. He sometimes uses shading in his art to make images look more realistic.

Tommy Penton

Tommy works as an ilustrator and painter and has done this for the past 10 years. Tommy's paintings show an intelligent yet unique approach to perspective art. His style is bright and fluid with a gentle sense of humour.

His artwork uses little colour and mainly involves black and white cartoon/comic images. His images sometimes include a photo image as the background where his drawings are placed to look as if they're in the photo too. His drawings are surreal and odd but also bring forward his unique style. Therefore it is easy to recognise his work.

Olivier Kugler

Olivier Kugler

Olivier Kugler was born in 1970 in Stuttgart, Germany. He has been working as an illustrator in London for clients all over the world. Olivier enjoys drawing people he meets and places he visits, and colours them afterwards on his laptop.
Oliviers style is simple, sometimes with minimal colour, yet includes unique images. The way the art is drawn makes it look childish, as if only a small amount of care is taken with the images. The colours are solid without shading or a faded effect.
I think that this particular image is intriguing as there are less objects involved and compared to Oliviers other pieces this is rare. I think his other pictures are busy and filled with objects to look at, hense why they are eye catching and interesting. I think the fact that the artist draws people and places he has seen and been to means that his art ties in with his life, making it much more personal. I enjoy Oliviers style as it resembles a comic book type of look, especially because of the use of block colours.
