Dubbed the ‘birdman,’ I think I should rechristen him the ‘skullman’ by the look of these Andy Gilmore illustrations. Earlier this year, Trend Hunter featured his geometric collection, and now just in time for Halloween, I bring to you his darker works.
Reminiscent of the famous Inkblot tests, the Andy Gilmore illustrations utilize a unique drawing technique. To lessen the maniacal nature of his work, I have also included some of his bird illustrations in the gallery.
