Colourful Illustrations By Willian Santiago

WORDS Michaela Stehr IMAGES via Behance and willian_santiago on Instagram

Brazilian illustrator and designer Willian Santiago creates colourful artworks featuring beautiful depictions of people and wildlife.

From fashion to skateboards, his work forms part of a variety of collaborations, where his illustrations are used in the form of prints. Inspired in part by nature, Willian also draws on the rich culture of Brazil and its local artisanal crafts.

Most of Willian’s work is produced through digital mediums while drawing on the stylistic elements of hand-made art, layering textures such as paint splashes or crayon markings.

He uses a range of bright, bold colours, with a focus on red, turquoise, blue, green and black, a nod to the Art Deco movement.
