80s LEGO-Influenced Illustrations

Artist Dean Shearn Recreats Beloveded 80s Icons With Lego Art

Dean Shearn shows us that there's nothing better than beloved 80s icons, except for when they're boldly designed as LEGO people.

Also known as 'Mungo Loves Candy', Dean Shearn unveiled his latest work of awesome art. Paying tribute to the late and great iconic characters of the 80s, like the infamous Beetlejuice and Blues Brothers, Shearn designed a collection of intricate illustrations that exhibit these characters in the form of LEGO. Dean Shearan grew up with these characters ruling his childhood and what child in the 80s could resist the fun LEGO possesses? Dean decided to bring his two childhood joys together and mold them into a beautiful masterpiece.

I love this collection and hope Dean keeps to his bright and bold designing. Perhaps we'll see 90s icons as LEGO next.

Trend Themes
1. Lego-inspired Art - Opportunity for artists to create new interpretations of beloved icons and characters using LEGO-inspired designs.
2. Nostalgia Marketing - Opportunity for companies to appeal to consumers' love of nostalgic 80s icons by incorporating them into advertising and product design.
3. Collectible LEGO Figures - Opportunity for LEGO to release limited edition collectible figures of popular 80s icons, appealing to fans of both LEGO and these beloved characters.
Industry Implications
1. Art - Artists can leverage LEGO-inspired designs to create unique and eye-catching works of art, appealing to fans of both LEGO and popular characters from the 80s.
2. Marketing and Advertising - Companies can incorporate popular 80s icons into their advertising and product design to appeal to consumers' nostalgia and increase brand recognition and customer loyalty.
3. Toy and Collectibles - LEGO can release limited edition collectible figures of popular 80s icons, appealing to both LEGO fans and fans of these beloved characters, and potentially increasing sales and fan engagement.
