We find an awful lot to like in the form of illustrator Benjamin Phillips. Not content with just having really great hair, this 21-year-old etched his way into our hearts with his whimsical works. Previously a painting disciple, he now employs the laborious process of etching to create incredibly detailed flights of fancy.
“A lot of my work is about being a kid and how you get frustrated as you get older. So it’s best to pretend that you’re not a grown-up.” This Peter Pan can be found contributing to various publications, and is also a founding member of Show Pony magazine. Currently Ben can be found drawing by day and chasing squirrels by night, whilst studying for his BA illustration at Brighton University.
