Request: Graphic Designers who are also Fine Artists

May 18, 2010 by Douglas Bonneville

I’m collecting references for an article about graphic designers who are also artists, fine or otherwise.

If you have a favorite graphic designer who also has an online portfolio of artwork in addition to their design work, I’d like to see it. Why?

The interest for creating an article like this stems from some earlier posts about graphic design and drawing. Some designers make do with confessedly little drawing skill, and some swear by it.

So, how does being a fine artist affect graphic design work, and vice-versa? I’d like to see, so I will write the article when I collect enough references.

So, if you are a fan of a particular graphic designer who doubles as an artist, let me know!

Please leave comments and links below.
