Nigel Peake

I really like the work of Nigel Peake as I find his line work and use of colour and composition incredibly simple yet effective, as his bold and slightly digital technique uses patterns to create the vision of different textures and depths, whilst creating the illusion of tonal depth through the spacing of the lines. Furthermore, I love how he is very select in what portions of the image to draw, and how he is not afraid of negative space, and in fact utilises it to ground his images onto the page and give them a sense of place. I would really like to look more into his work and try to inject some colour into my work, as well as incorporating built up line instead of tone, which is something I haven't really explored before.
