Student work uncovered… Paul Washer's illustrations and use of Photoshop

  • Excellent illustration work.
    I should imagine everybody goes through a phase of going crazy with digital editing. I shudder with embarrassment when I think of some of the things I did to my photography back in the mid-90s, just because I could, even though they were well received at the time.

  • Wonderful drawings – they communicate very strongly and directly. I think that as we learn and develop we must sometimes work through things and even go to extremes to get to a useful position.
