Skwak, a French illustrator and toy designer, is apparently inspired by fairytales. They must be some kooky, scary fairytales.
His illustrations and prints feature creatures of craziness and exaggeration. This exaggeration purveys the idea of 'too much', Skwak says, "the idea of escalation, through power, wealth, plastic surgery, celebrity..."
His clients include Nike, Levis, BeautifulDecay, Microsoft (Zune), Artoyz, and Mindstyle; and his works have appeared in many books and magazines.
There are angels, orgies, children, virgins, and bodybuilders; each created with patience and detail galore in the gallery attached. Me likey!
And you can see more at skwak.com. Via designiskinky.net.
