AOI attended the opening last week of member Paul Wearing’s new exhibition. Paul is a London-based artist and illustrator. Since graduating from the Royal College of Art, Paul has established himself as one of the UK’s most prolific illustrators, working extensively throughout the US, UK and Far East, with fashion, interior and advertising houses. The influence of his design background is evident in much of his illustration and has led to high profile campaign work as well as large-scale architectural installations.

Projects have ranged from creating huge murals at General Mills’ corporate headquarters, to producing a multitude of imagery for luxury US retailer Neiman Marcus, and contributing to a worldwide campaign for United Airlines.

We bumped into Paul’s agents at CIA, Ben Cox and Briam Grimwood, and were also pleased to have a chat with AOI Patron Peter Till
