Colorfully Squiggly Illustrations

These Designs by Tim Colmant Utilize Simple Techniques

— February 8, 2013 — Art & Design
These wonderfully cheery illustrations by Tim Colmant showcase a variety of oddly shaped creatures and figures using the technique of squiggly lines, and each frame features a relatively upbeat attitude.

While many art pieces and illustrations feature utterly complex and intricately detailed designs, Colmant's artwork takes art back to a more basic medium of irregular shapes and lines, unproportional figures and a wide array of colors. These squiggly shaped designs by Colmant display such unique things as odd-shaped monsters dancing to personified cylinders, and these illustrations are a fantastic representation of artwork taking a more simplistic approach in their design method.

These upbeat squiggly illustrations are perfect for those looking to hang some simplistically creative and colorful pieces of artwork on their walls at home.
