Years ago I purchased a book called Area which showcased 100 designers and illustrators. In that book I noticed the unique illustration style of
Lizzie Finn. Lizzie is unlike most illustrators as her tools of the trade are textiles and embroidery thread. She is best known for her embroidered images on the album cover
Things To Make and Do for the British band, Moloko. For this she created handmade characters and also stitched the typography.
I believe that she doesn't shy away from using a computer, however I admire the fact that she prefers this more labour intensive route. She also makes us realise that there is more to design than just computer generated images.
