<p>As a lover of art and design from everywhere, there are, personally, 3 main literary requirements: Juxtapoz, Creative Review and, erm, the Internet. Having purchased and digested Issue 12, perhaps Art Box should be added to that list. Described in its&#8217; own words&#8230;</p>

<p>Claire Scully&#8217;s illustrations should be regarded as second to none. An intricate methodology combined with love for the art of illustration produces such examples as <em><strong>Wolf</strong></em> above.</p>
<p><span id="more-321"></span></p>
<p>Claire describes herself:</p>
<p><em>I have a geeky obsession with science fiction books, TV and films. I am fascinated by the play of ideologies in the utopias and dystopias of science fiction, the creation of landscapes and societies where the impossible is made possible.</em></p>
<p><em>My work displays a mix of strange utopian worlds and parallel universes with juxtapositions of the unexpected, playing with scale and narrative.</em></p>

<p>Doug Wilson is a master of the traditional printing press. A multi-disciplinary designer from Missouri, Doug&#8217;s work is currently on sale at the Keep Calm Gallery.</p>
<p><span id="more-202"></span></p>
<p>Based in East Dulwich, London, Keep Calm is the brainchild of Lucas Lepola and Hayley Thwaites. The site&#8217;s founders state that it was born as follows:</p>
<p><em><strong>&#8220;&#8230;out of our passion for typography in poster design, British heritage and the medium of screen printing.&#8221;</strong></em></p>
<p>The product range certainly conveys this, with Doug Wilson&#8217;s work epitomising the statement further.</p>
