Alex Pardee





This is an artist im always very fond of,  a major influence for me.  Alex Pardee is an alternative illustrator, producing work for magazines, bands and also producing work for a group called zerofriends.

Alex's work can easily be separated into two sections. His personal work and his commercial work are although similar, at the same time different from each other. his personal work tends to hold a lot more expression in colour and movement whereas his commercial work tends to have much more restrictions placed upon it. That is not to say that his commercial work is not as good as his work but is merley different in colour styling.

 Pardee's work is very organic in nature and extremely imaginative, some would say his work can be a little disturbing at times but i find it to be more interesting.  Rather than looking at his work and instantly understanding it, the unusual images force you to stop and look at what is going on.
