Steven Wilson’s Neo-Psychedelica

Untitled by Steven Wilson

Illustrator Steven Wilson is defining an updated psychedelia with his wonderful use of colour and form to create these mind-bending images and typography.

Steve takes the spirit of 80’s New York, combines rock imagery from the 70’s, and squeezes it through a brain full of circuses and tribal body art. As yu’d imagine, Steve’s techniques are as eclectic as his influences, harnessing the spontaneity of pen, pencil, collage and play-doh, with the endless possibilities of contemporary tools like photoshop and Illustrator.
