The illustrations I am doing for childline are a similar style to the look of Quentin Blakes. He has a free simplistic approach and his use of colour is very effective.

This is a video on the childline YouTube page showing how to cope with suicidal feeling. The visuals in the animation aren’t over complicated, they are simple bold and clear. Looking at previous illustration work childline has used before is helping inform me what type of look they like and what style to make my illustrations.

Gemma is a cartoonist, writer and illustrator. She has done illustrations on mental health which relates to the type of illustrations I will be creating for The Childline competition.

This is artwork by Robin Velghe. Robin is an illustrative designer and animator.  I really like his use of lines and how he draws people, also the colours he uses.
