Saul Steinberg is probably my main influence for this project. His simplistic yet lively drawings give him a distinct style that relates to mine. The pieces above emit imaginative characters and scenery. For colour it looks as though he uses pencil crayon.
The map of America gives the states a bubbly/hilly feel that is so the opposite from reality, because the states are divided like squares almost. The piece representing rows of character's portraits look as though they've been drawn by a child. This deliberate style evokes political parody through Steinberg's work.
