My incapacity to draw intricate pictures has always been a frustration to me. I do not have a lack of images, but I guess just a lack of genes to actually put those ideas on paper. The good news is there are actually artists like David Bray, who seem to relay images similar to what I have in mind. His creations, I believe, are amazing because he is able to project simplicity and sophistication at the same time. One look at some of his work and you would see how he meshes the plainness of uncolored and sketched drawings with rather complex designs. On top of that, he is also able to channel emotions and "sensuality" without falling into the trap of being too mushy and overly rococo.
Bray was born in 1970 in Dartford Kent and had always had a fascination for the surreal, drawing "images of space travel, where he would depict himself and his friends visiting other planets and universes." Bray still shows his "out of his world" side in his works to this day. His talent has brought him a wonderful career as a freelance illustrator who clients include "Harvey Nichols, H&M, Canon, Vodafone, BBC Television, Nokia, Puma, Virgin, Sony, Kickers and Charles Worthington and magazines have included Carlos, Elle, Flaunt, The Sunday Times and Time Out."
