An Artist's Life in London | Work in Progress with David Gentleman

David Gentleman is an iconic British illustrator and designer who has lived a lifetime in London. You can pre-order My Town now: amzn.to/2RNy2K9
Drawing from over sixty years of engagement with this most well-known capital city, his most recent book, My Town presents London as it was and as it is today. His beautiful and intricate work - of the Thames, Hampstead Heath, Camden Town (where David Gentleman has lived in the same house for fifty years), London's parks and sights - offers us the pleasure of looking again at the everyday.
Accompanied by reflections on the work of an artist, commentary on the possibilities of ink, pen and paint and personal thoughts on the ever-changing city, this is a delight for all those who flock to London.

A wonderful illustrator. Graphic Designer. The New Penguin Shakespeare covers are still as modern as they come. Pity they were not completed for the full works. - A less than subtle hint to you Ladies & Gentlemen at Penguin - why don't you just reprint them with DG's covers again?

Artists don't represent the world they create it
