JOHN PAUL THURLOW

Years ago in an ELLE magazine I came across this Biro Drawing -



This stunning piece of art is by John Paul Thurlow 

His biro pen covers of magazine covers are amazing! After shading the image, he scribbles and personalises over the drawing adding a unique aspect to his art.  






I believe he should be more known in the art and fashion industry because his work is something different and links art and fashion which is always a clever mix.
