Marcus Walters Illustration & Design
After feeling around, I’ve come to this conclusion: I can afford a relaxing day in the sun and enjoying more work by UK based illustrator Marcus Walters.
Created for Barclays Bank, this illustration is bright and cheerful amidst a neighborhood of homes for sale. The clever type contained within the cloud nicely complements the analogously colored homes. I especially enjoy the intricate details that lie within the trees and the decoration of the homes. I love how Marcus’ hand drawn type and layered paper collages play a thoughtful and dynamic role in almost all of his works. To see more, check out his website, and be sure to pick up a nice print at his shop as well! My personal choice would be his “My First Alphabet Poster.”

Yay. More cutesy, unoriginal, mid-century-inspired doodles.
I don’t get it.

Poor, sad Garret. I too would be as miserable as you if I could also see into the hearts of men and gauge the level of their inspiration. Luckily, I don’t have that power!

There’s something about these that is so loose and 1970s feeling. I love it! And I love it even more that it’s being used in such commerical applications.
