Dive head first into illustrator Zansky's whimsical and folksy creations

Date
30 May 2012

The words “magical”, “crazy” and “manic” conjure up images of some sort of sorcerer in a Disney film, but it’s merely a brief description of the wonderful portfolio from illustrator and graphic designer, Zansky. Based in São Paulo, his work makes you dive head first into a world full of bright and lively scribbled animals, sweeps of colour and detailed patterns that have a folksy air about them. Using printing processes such as silkscreen, letterpress and engraving, it’s also the craft and handmade feel in Zansky’s work that shines through and draws you in even more.
