Gillian Blease - Simple Shapes

Fantastic, bold and clean illustration

The work of Gillian Blease is extremely eye catching. Her illustrations for Nestlé and Jersey Telcom are among my favorites. The style she executes forms bold shapes and details that pull you in for further evaluation. Color too is always so excellent in application. Very refreshing and a nice contrast to the super saturated market of "glossy" illustration which seems to permeate our world.
