‘Locations’ by Matthew Lyons

June 16, 2010 - By Bobby Solomon - Category: Illustration

One of my current favorite illustrators Matthew Lyons is out with a new site of illustrations called ‘Locations’ and boy howdy are they good looking. There isn’t much info about why he started the series or what it’s about exactly but it does a nice job of exploring his style. This retro-contemporary thing is certainly popular right now but Matthew’s version with so much saturated color, moody lighting and “grit” make me quite happy.

Totally awesome. Probably the most atmospheric illustrations I’ve seen in a long time. The correct URL should be http://matthew-lyons.blogspot.com/

Very nice. I get excited over this sort of lens flare effect that he is doing. The color palates are so n-n-nostalgic.
