Illustrator Tom Gauld.

Amongst the ongoing amount of blogs that we'll be posting, I'm going to start doing more short blogs about illustrators who I take great inspiration from and who delight my eyes. Eventually transpiring in the brave step of posting some of my own illustrations online for the very first time.

I'm going to start with Tom Gauld, someone who has inspired me for some time.

Guardian readers will probably recognize his accute and humorous style from the many covers and short strips he has done for the paper. He has also done many publications under his own name and some with other collective books, including the fantastic Kramers Ergot.
