These awesome photo and ink collages are the work of London-based graphic designer and illustrator, Nikki Farquharson.
These vibrant images are from her ongoing project entitled 'Mixed Media Girls'.
I love the 3D nature of her work, the striking colors, the bold prints, and the way the photographic images blend so seamlessly into the artwork.
Farquharson's impressive work was recently displayed at the YCN Alive exhibit in Helsinki.
Implications - Collages continue to be interesting ways to combine patterns, textures and colors in a visually stimulating and appealing way. Companies should consider utilizing this artistic technique within window displays, product packaging, branding, and marketing campaigns in order to feature multiple mediums simultaneously.
