Love of the vector and visual representation in digital illustration.

Illustration has a powerful role to play in design, capturing the essence of its subject in a heartbeat, yet providing a world of information for its intended audience. The popularity of Manga (Japanese comics) is testament to this fact. The images of these graphic novels are meant to be "read", not glanced at, giving them the same depth of meaning as the printed word.

The love of illustration began with a vector for Stephen. Having always drawn with traditional media such as pencil and marker pen, it was an introduction to Adobe Illustrator that set his creativity free. Being able to experiment without restriction, as is characteristic of digital illustration, opened up many artistic possibilities.
