Experimental processes such as torching, using metal shavings, iridescents and metallics soon became the primary elements for these drawings.

A fantastic source of inspiration, the book gives insight into the inner workings and private inspiration of creatives from the world of advertising, design, graphic design, fashion design, art, street art, and illustration.
