Image//Type as Image//Birds//Charley Harper.




For a long time, Charley Harper has been one of my favourite illustrative designers, and a key source of inspiration in terms of my own design practice- and one of the very first examples of inspiration I thought of when choosing my quote 'It certainly has nothing to do with the number of birds'- Harper, of course, being famous for his wildlife illustrations, and, in particular, his depiction of birds.
In this case, my current ideas and concept include something a little more detailed and hand-rendered than Harper's bold, Graphic vector-like designs, but I felt his use of texture was worth a blog post alone- lovely stuff.
