Patrick Boyer

Training Patrick studied communication and the media before becoming involved in a series of art projects where he was able to hone his image making skills. He went freelance when he lived in New York in 2001, working on projects like book covers, animated series and magazine illustrations. Approach When Patrick gets a brief, he spends a lot of time researching and seeking inspiration. He looks for references, develops a mood board, and tries to conjure up a feel and/or a narrative that fits the project. Style Patrick works in two styles. The first draws together photographic elements to create wildly colourful and often quite detailed collage imagery. He uses the various parts of the image to try and tell a story conveying the direction of the piece he’s illustrating. His second style employs vector graphics. It’s equally striking and no less colourful than his collage work.
