Today we welcome Bel Johnstone to the Memories project. She’s going to be creating an image for our book, which is in aid of the cancer charity Maggie’s, in response to a story about Tom Preston, who discovered he had leukemia at the age of 18. Bel has specialised in making images out of tiny dots to create forms, patterns and shading. It’s just like the stippling work of Seurat. More recently, she’s been experimenting with illustrated type and in some pieces the two techniques come together quite stunningly. Above you can see her interpretation of that famous line from Blade Runner. There’s a video of her painting the type on YouTube. We are super pleased that Bel Johnstone is working on an illustration for the book, all the way over there in Australia. Please take a look at her portfolio here.
