Andrew Rae
Not only is the UK the hot spot for new music, but it is also bursting at the seams with creativity in the illustartion world. Andrew Rae is one of those absolutely fantastic artists. I love his instantly recognizable loose hand drawings. Everything he choses as his subjects he seems to making subtle fun of. I just love it. He doesn't really seem to take his work too seriously, and I think that in this case, that is an incredibly good thing.
He also takes a very traditional approach to drawing. Yes, his work often does incorporate computer coloring and effects, but it is never computer "heavy" ... never does it rely on the computer to impress the viewer. I think this quote exemplifies his work:
How would you describe your work?
Irreverent and dumb...
