a big thank you to everyone who’s been a part of it, I’m looking forward to seeing what 2019 holds – but for now, time to relax 
I’m sorry for not being too active! I’ve not be able to share what I’ve been working on, but I’m so excited to share soon! I’ve also joined an outside swimming club (heated, thankfully!) so this illustration seems relevant! 
This was a quick colour palette test! The heatwave has returned and I'm struggling to keep my studio cool enough to work 
lots of experimenting with colours this week, prepping my pieces and planning for New Designers!The post Illustrator Draws Inspiration from Art Deco Posters appeared first on PlayJunkie.
