I could look at the illustrations of Andrew Brandou all day long. Andrew’s work is inspired by children‚Äôs books and LSD, Charles Manson, and opium dens. Hovering skulls,flowers and storm troopers are recurring images as well as the cute little animals carrying weapons that you find hard to believe could be deadly. Maybe there are no orange bands on the barrel of those rifles for a reason.

“After Audubon” is a series of paintings featuring the work of John Audubon revisited to include Harajuku fashion, vinyl toys and other pop culture icons. Andrew’s seamless integration of these pop culture icons is both impressive and hilarious.
