Marilyn Neuhart's Dolls & Sara Fanelli


The beauty of Sarah Fanelli work its that I never get tired of looking at it, her work is amazing and sometimes I do wish I could think in the way she does? How she come up with them amazing piece of work? How she pick the right materials? Colour Harmon's? How much of a risk taker is she?
All these questions that one day I hope can be answered, but for know her work has a lot of impact on me as an Illustrator, cutting them risk and really seeing and experimenting of her work.
I hope to find some of her books to order so yet again I have her work in my hand if ever I need inspiration.

When I was first introduced to Neuharts work my heart just melted and I felt an instont connection between her work and mine, the humour, pattern and pure love for what she does really capture my mind and really inspired my 3D piece for my brief.

Another Illustrator that really capture my attention and was the reason for wanting to do a wallpaper piece and explore in depth about what Screen Printing could do for my work. Jenny Bower ( Peep-show Collective Limited). I could talk forever about Bowers work, but what I will say is that her collaboration with graphic design and Illustration is unique, its not too graphic and at the same time keeps the free hand appeal to her work. The us of colour, humour and imagination is clean and thoughtful.
(I also have the knew 2012 addition of the PeepShow Book which she is in, so I can always keep her near by for reference and inspiration)

Along my travels as a up coming Illustrator I always try to look back at other materials, artist and people who have inspired me on my journeys and Charles Harper is a consent reminder in my work, I always look at the us of simple shapes and not over complicating the design with too many elements. Looking at the quality of the shape and the space around the figure.
The us of colours and texture are simple but amazing capture by the shapes and colour combination he uses.
( I have already order his book from Amazon, so I can have his work with me always).


This artist not only influences my work in general but epically on the Brief that I have been working on over the Summer creating my narrative sequence as well has progressing with my story and changing an adding element.
Steffen Larson is on of the most experimental and interesting artist Iv ever some across, these 3 images allow me to look out of my comfort zone and be more experimental with my imagination and humour within my work, and allowing me to look at DEVELOPMENT my skills as an illustrator more freely.
