Miles Donovan

The co founder of the Peepshow; a very talented illustrator, he has worked with the Big Issue, The Observer, New York Times, Billboard and the list goes on. His illustrations are a great example that simplicity can be very effective. I think his stencil images produced for the likes of the Observer are punchy bold and eye catching; exactly what they should be. His portfolio suggests an urban feel, with use of spray paints and his vector images of US rappers. The use of just process colours in some of images enhances the images.
Just made me think when looking at the stencil/graffiti- esque pictures, that many people disregard stencil graffiti as art but as soon as your able to sell it, it becomes illustration.
