Hilary Clarcq

After earning a BA in English and Fine Art, Hilary spent many years as a graphic designer before turning to illustration as a way to combine design-thinking with her love of drawing. Her design background is evident in her illustration work, where she employs graphic elements alongside more realistic rendering.

When not drawing or painting, you can find her outdoors or discovering new places. Her favorite means of exploration are bikes, surfboards, and the printed word.

Luigi Savino

Fascinated with the visual ecosystem of contemporary urban settings, Luigi expresses hyper-realistic detail with the compelling techniques of graffiti: an emphasis on composition, line, form, and rhythm. Mr. Savino captures and curates the moments of time, unheard conversations, and visual quirks within our contemporary urban environment for your gallery, album, or zine. The characters that occupy his pieces observe the passing of time and the neglected aesthetic stimuli of our daily urban and digital existence. His strong drawing technique and a versatile mixture of collage elements and classical painting simultaneously obscure and illuminate – tuning out excessively loud notes and subtly highlighting overlooked tones. some works are shaken, others stirred. You might encounter the crafty and elusive artist watching hoops or carefully and methodically documenting in vivid detail the daily sights, sounds, and smells of your neighborhood you never noticed for his next pastiche.
