We love this illustration New Division artist Vari Telleria created for 'You and Your Wedding', in her signature collage style. Bouncy Castles and Gummy Bears don't often feature on the pages of bridal magazines, but Vari's fun filled artwork was the perfect accompaniment for the magazine's guide to avoiding a romance overload on the big day.
Phosphor Art are pleased to now be representing Rive Gauche Studio artist Marcel Laverdet, a very versatile illustrator. Marcel's best known for his 3D work, but his talents also extend to pastiche artworks.
AMV recently contacted Phosphor Art with details of a mammoth project for BT Sport - an Out of Home campaign promoting 'Four Competitions, One Venue'. The resulting artwork focused on the mascots of several football teams from The Europa League, The Champions League, The FA Cup and The Premier League. Jon Rogers was tasked with painting each mascot in a classical renaissance style, fighting no holds barred towards a football.

So that just leaves one question to be answered, who's going to be the first person to commission him?

The TV adverts make heroes from the talented team of craftsmen and women behind the UK's largest sofa manufacturer.
