I'm Emile*, a kiwi illustrator and animator living in Japan.
I love creating characters and isometric scenes. Drawing food and cars. Working on great ad campaigns and illustrating for beer cans and magazines. I sometimes animate too. With a list like that, the most consistent thing about my style is the black outlines and flat colours. You might call it Ligne claire.
Before becoming a freelance illustrator, I studied and worked as a graphic designer. Before living in Japan, I lived in the U.K.
If you'd like to work together, then please get in touch. If you want to sign I'm to my newsletter (four images, once a month) you can do on my pencilbooth.
