The work of Quentin Horn will delight many people. Whether a person loves animals, whimsical doodles or playful art in general, this series of work will connect with them on various levels. Although described as collages by Design Taxi, Quentin Horn's work is more like intricate drawings. The idea of a collage comes from the fact that these animal portraits are made up of tiny doodles.
Based in Cape Town, South Africa, Quentin Horn is an artist and graphic designer who would doodle in his notebook filled with to-do lists and client briefs. Design Taxi writes, "It was only after scanning and compiling individual doodles into a larger picture when he realised that they added depth and brought definition to the larger image. This work now sees each individual doodle as a “brush stroke” that adds up into wonderful collages of animals and natural scenes."
