Illustration

Illustrator Tom Edwards is going from strength to strength, his work is getting bigger, more complex and more and more involving. This image is a one meter square poster celebrating the 350th anniversary of the royal society. The web really doesn’t do it justice! I really love work that can pack in a huge amount of info and narrative into one image.
