What can be said about Gabriel Moreno? He is simply amazing!
I am in love with this guy’s illustrations. He is most definitely a new
favourite. I wish there was more information about him, but I’m having a lot of
trouble finding anything other than his spectacular artwork.
The about section on his website (seen here) says that he is
based out of Madrid, and graduated with a Fine Arts degree in 1998. However, it
wasn’t until 2007 that he was picked up by Computer
Arts, a popular magazine based in London, where he became globally renowned
for his distinguishable style. Since then, his work has reportedly shown up in
a number of places including many North American advertisements, newspapers,
and magazines.
It looks like his preferable medium is pen on paper. I would
love to see his artwork up close. I don’t think our computer screens do these
illustrations any justice. He designs his artwork in large scale, and all we
get to see is a downsized version of his talent.
This is the kind of artwork that inspires me. This is the
stuff that makes me want to bust out some good ol’ pen and paper and start to
draw again.
Thanks Mr. Moreno. Brilliance like yours is too few, and far
between.
