Dave Bain

Dave Bain is a freelance, commercial illustrator based in Bristol, UK, with nearly two decades of experience working on editorial, promotional, advertising, branding and publishing commissions.

Dave’s idiosyncratic illustrations are colourful, distinctive, wildly expressive and feature stylised characters. Screen-printing, risograph techniques, jazz and electronic music and visual culture are all inspirations for Dave’s vivid work.

In this episode, Dave shares insight behind his recent murals, including one for Aardman Animations.
