Inspirational Artists

Brian Bolland -

Brian is a British comic artist, I was really inspired by his drawing style when I read the comic 'The Killing Joke' by Alan Moore - I found the images striking and I really admire his drawing talents. He's also done comic art for Judge Dredd, 2000 AD and he's worked a lot for DC Comics.


I really like this image from the Killing Joke as he's thought about every line and stroke, the hair looks like it's crawling between his fingers and his eyes and notorious grin overpower his face - his eyes almost appear to be popping out from his sockets and the psychotic glare give this really intense and unnerving effect. I feel like its a cross between comic book and realistic drawing techniques, the way he's interpreted the Joker has defined his character, you could tell even without knowing who the Joker is that this is an unstable, insane character.
