Master of the editorial illustration, we give you Rodion Kitaev

Date
14 December 2012

Text is nice, words are interesting, but sometimes a whole blob of copy is too much for our little eyeballs to deal with. That’s why someone (don’t know who, Santa?) invented editorial illustrators to make long articles look more appealing to the aesthetically fickle human being. What better example of editorial illustration is there than the enormous portfolio of Russian-born Rodion Kitaev? His bold colours and friendly style could transform even the most boring of articles into something actually quite appealing. Check out his Flickr for pages upon pages of beautiful illustrations, you won’t be disappointed!
