SOPHIE HENSON - GUARDIAN GUIDE



We love the Guardian Guide, even if it's more for the cover illustration they commission rather then the stack of events, interviews and reviews inside. And we love it even more now Sophie Henson has joined the other great image-makers who've illustrated the cover feature. It's all about the 'synth' in this issue!

SOPHIE HENSON - ILLUSIVE


Another fine example of creative publishing and illustration documentation from Gestalten with the release of Illusive part three. Following on from parts one and two, the latest in the series casts a keen eye on more up and coming and established image-makers from around the globe. Comfortably passing the criteria of world-class illustrator (Us, bias? Never!) is Synergy artist Sophie Henson.

KAT HEYES - GOK WAN


'Work Your Wardrobe' is the latest offering from style supremo and TV celeb Gok Wan to hit the book shelves this autumn. Aiming for a more sophisticated look, the team at HarperCollins UK recruited the services of freelance art director (and Synergy chum – see Oct 08 Tina Berning blog post) Nikki Dupin who in turn commissioned Synergy artist Kat Heyes for the cover and chapter headings. We'll be posting more pics from inside the book once our postie gets back from his strike action break/walk-out holiday!
