Over the past decade there has been a creative rebirth in the practice of illustration; today illustration is everywhere, from global ad campaigns, to the covers of glossy magazines, in animated Hollywood blockbusters and even on the screens of our mobile phones.

With modes of production ranging from the re-imagined traditional mediums to the wide range of computer-based applications, and a myriad of unique combinations of both hand and digital means, today’s illustrators are breaking the mould in terms of production. This book features the work of more than 80 contemporary practitioners, many previously unpublished. Drawn from around the world, each will be accompanied by an interview with the illustrator.
