Amazing Black/White Illustrations

Andrew Wilson has created a number of stunning black/white illustrations.

I was a bit hesitant about posting these pictures, seeing she has no clothes on - but the graphical richness really caught my eye.

Take a look at this first picture about music, where the girl is mixed with a Cello. It is very subtle, but incredibly creative.

You can find a large number of these illustrations on Andrew's blog and on the ConceptArt forum.

Wow, these are awesome!

true, she may have no clothes on but it's done in a very classy and artistic fashion so in my opinion there's nothing to worry about

I'm also a designer but i'm studied in University, This design catch my eyes and it is very good in positioning and balancing and all. The color black and white covers her body although she is naked, the usage of color and design is suitable and wise. May i know what kind of black and white illustration that suitable for kids. Can u suggest me any articles... it's for my thesis.... thank you... and a good job well done on the illustration.

Hate to burst anyone's bubble about creativity....but the "girl as cello" illustration is either a direct rip-off, or more likely, a respectful homage to a famous Man Ray photo (c. 1925) of the back of a nude that becomes a violin. A Google image search should bring it up, or any book on May Ray's photography. I'm sure Andrew would also acknowledge the graphic work of Aubrey Beardsley, especially his "Salome" series. Damn...it's hard having a background in Art History
