Berrie







































This lady, Christine Berrie, has a distinctive drawing style and some shared interests of mine. She devoted an entire series to household electrical objects. fuses. plugs. meters. She also appears to have alot of time for cranes and understand that marmite is a beautiful thing. I have a bit of a thing for inspirations that are not conventionally recognised as attractive, artistic or worthy of an artist/illustrator spending time to draw. Big machines, docks, pipes, things with rust on, big old industrial things kind of get me keen. I want to reintroduce my odd unconventional object admirations and obsessions to my cardboard. It could be beautiful. One of those magical moments. But seriously, her detail without being pedantic about it, the overall style and the lack of fear in regards to white space on a page is damn good.
