john dilnot

I have been sorting out my studio at home now for about a week and today i came across something i had saved ages ago (from 2006 !), but forgotten about, knowing i would want it someday. It was a little programme from an exhibition called 'made' at the YSP. I had underlined this guys name and i couldn't remember why so i googled it and found his website. I knew instantly from his cards, prints and little handmade books why i had saved this for so long! I love his organised illustrations and the repetition in his work, but also the cluttered, crazy artist boxes he creates. I find them really inspirational and even more so as i have just been given a choice of 3 YCN briefs, one of which is a Christmas card design. I would love to try this brief especially so i can create some screen prints, illustrations and little paper sculptures or pop up designs for them! anyway here is John Dilnot's website.
