Connecting You to a World of Illustration
Exclusively contracted to represent:
Liam Brazier
The UK-based illustrator and animator Liam Brazier looks at the world in a unique way, and his artwork certainly reflects this. Effortlessly bringing shapes and bright colours together to form people, places and objects, he’ll give any project a distinctive look and feel, drawing the viewer in through deconstruction.
Liam’s work is often classed as ‘low poly art’ (though in reality is quite the opposite), focusing on using 2D shapes and colours to reduce images to as few basic forms as possible. His imaginative process was birthed with paper collage techniques evolving to vector artwork in more recent years.
With a BA in Illustration from the Kent Institute of Art and Design, Liam’s influences include the flat-plane paintings of Charles Sheeler, Disney, and Star Wars. He’s based in the East of England.
Approach
Liam used to cut each shape out with a scalpel, using coloured papers to construct a final piece. Today, he has distilled this process down to a digital one, drawing and colouring his shapes in software and using strong, saturated tones to suggest depth. He Draws everything on iPad in Linearity Curve. When it comes to animation Liam utilises a wide variety of styles as the brief dictates and creates predominantly in After Effects.Key Software
