A sequel to the highly successful Pen & Mouse, Hand to Eye features 45 illustrators from around the world. The work reveals that computer illustration is thriving and continues to push boundaries. The last two years, however, have seen a move towards a handcrafted style – perhaps a reaction to the torrent of digital imagery. Image-makers are increasingly turning to traditional tools and techniques, some working solely with pen, pencil and paint, others using tapestry and embroidery, many incorporating digital elements into handmade art. Hand to Eye reflects these diverse approaches, from slick, vector-based work to a lo-fi, handcrafted aesthetic and from exquisitely detailed collages to simple, single-colour sketches.
