In Depth Analysis of Niki Pilkington

She's been promoting interest in the fashion industry working with companies such as of Elle, Ugg and Topshop and no doubt there will be more offers from other companies in the near future

Niki uses pencils, pens, fluorescent markers & collage to make amazing compositions that are unique to her style and easily identifiable as her style. The mix of all these elements creates images with such life and humour, combining humour with seriousness and creating fun images that hard not to like. The 3D element to her work is a quirky way of adding depth to the piece because it almost makes you want to reach out and touch. She uses materials and objects that make her illustrations as effective as pop out images because the quite literally lift up off the page.  Perhaps this is why Niki's work is so sought after by fashion houses & stores; that ability to bring design to life is an amazing skill that Niki exudes
