Illustrators we like: Alison Jay

Sometimes, when developing an ad campaign for a client, we look for powerful illustratiors that can sometimes convey a stronger message than photography. When we discovered Ms. Jay's breadth of work, that's exactly what we had in mind.
We like Alison's work because it's spirited and it brings out the color and beauty of everyday things. She is also skilled at wrapping big ideas into home-spun packages that grab the viewer by the collar and pull him in.
The best illustrators, we find, are the ones who can execute our campaigns with discipllined flair. Ms. Jay, who currently lives in the UK, demonstrates how an artist can work successfully with creative directors to develop one-of-a-kind messaging and not digress into clip art in the process. She's also done some great children's books illustrations.
