Luke Chueh works with animals. He is an illustrator who has incredible narrative skill creating twisted metaphorical imagery of animals using colour to communicate the emotion connected to each painting. Some of his work shows anger or fear whist other situations such as ‘the alchemist’ shows insanity it reminds me of how tequila feels. I greatly admire how refined and tight his style is.

Ashley Wood is a well-known aussie illustrator who works mostly in comic books and art books. He takes a very stylised approach in his work, which is done with oil paint and often tweaked digitally. His personal work predominantly features naked girls and robots occasionally adding other weird and wonderful creatures. Although his illustration and comic book work have shown him apply his unique style to all kinds of characters, predominantly metal gear solid and a while ago he had a shot uncanny x-men. Ashley Wood has also created album covers and provided art for advertisements. He comic book Popbot is currently in production and should be out in a few years. Ashley wood is quite widely criticised for publishing work that is so stylised it seems unfinished. the main issue is that he isn’t painting as much on his comics using line and pen alongside small amounts of paint for most of his panels. To me this says he mineralizing and refining his work to make it more appropriate to the nature of the narrative.
