Michael Parkin's illustrations are wonderfully observed
Michael Parkin’s portfolio is a wonderful mix of commissioned work interspersed with personal projects, which is exactly what you want when looking through a creative’s website. His style is simple but well observed and whether he’s creating a poster for Little White Lies or a series of prints relating to a trip to Denmark, Michael’s work is wonderful at telling a story.
I really enjoy the colours the London-based illustrator uses, with his chosen palettes often evoking a distinct mood within the project. Recently shortlisted in the AOI Illustration Awards 2014 in the Self Initiated category for his screenprint, Where There’s A Will There’s A Whale, Michael’s work is great to look through, so go ahead and have a gander.
