Hunter French, the New York City-based illustrator originally from Connecticut, didn’t really wrap his head around illustration as a concept before university. “I got into illustration because it was the only thing I felt I could do at the time,” Hunter says. “For a while, I wasn’t committed to the field and was trying other avenues of study in school, all the way to getting a degree in graphic design,” he continues. After a few years away from his incessant sketchbook doodling, Hunter returned seriously to illustration about three years ago. His illustrations are brightly coloured, featuring characters with cartoon eyes that look like they jumped out of a children’s book and into the hectic scenarios that Hunter imagines them in.
