Bowled over by the excellence of illustrator/designer Stephen Cheetham
There’s not many websites where you can flit happily from a rather rude representation of underwear-clad shenanigans to a smart depiction of cybersecurity, but then there aren’t many illustrators like Stephen Cheetham. The London-based creative has a portfolio of work which can be charming, funny and surprising in turn and a simple, colourful style which works across commissions for the likes of Nike, Creative Review, Bloomberg and The Big Issue. Throw in some excellent personal work (including aforementioned delightful naughtiness) and the best 3D piece featuring a giant-tongued bear you will see this week, and you’re looking at a seriously impressive young talent.
