Once we were asked to find one who can draw a picture like da Vinci in two days. One day we won’t be surprised to be asked for a Brooks who is not Brooks or any other artist who is able to do the same work for less money. It’s expensive and complicated to hire a well-known artist, especially when his style can be easily copied. We spoke about style, imitation, inspiration and duplication to two illustrators, two art-directors and one teacher.

It’s about time we spoke about Japan. Many names have already been lost in memories. You can be disgusted or dazzled by the pictures you see, but your demons will like them. It’s not the fact that the Japanese illustrators are more talented than the European ones. With their constant outburst of creative power they are just like floodlighted praised Superheroes.
