Barbara Dziadosz’s playful and summery bubblegum-pink illustrations

Date
27 June 2014

The stooped, gangly characters in Barbara Dziadosz’s illustrations look like they’re on constant adventures in their bubblegum-pink world. Her energetic bunch are either deep sea diving, catching butterflies in nets, or peering speculatively through a magical telescope, always surrounded by the same blobby, stenciled flora. We love the scratchy lines and rough, overlapping components of the compositions, and Barbara’s consistent pink and purple colour palette. The images are surreal and summery and joyous, with plenty of cacti terrariums containing lurking leopards and oversized cats being led by their owner through a polka-dot jungle. These bold and bright illustrations will have you itching to join in on the surreal, summery fun.
