22-year-old Canadian illustrator Alex Westgate can cheer you up with cute, colorful drawings. In the colorful world of a young artist, there are characters with constantly raised corners of their mouths and even tree branches look like funny emoticons. Since everything is so beautiful, the heroes of the fiery-bright drawings can only squint their eyes with pleasure.
Alex Westgate is a graphic designer, illustrator and printmaker based in Toronto. He is now attending the College of Art and Design and paints a lot.
Orange and blue colors predominate in the bright drawings of the young cheerful artist. Reminds me of a song familiar from childhood about a young painter who loved everything orange.
Alex Westgate accompanies some of the illustrations with short notes. For example, the contented giant emerging from the trees is Wally, the forest dweller. The modest and shy animal does not like to be shown in public, but thanks to its impressive size, it is difficult to miss. “If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one around, will it make a sound? You have to ask Wally: this is clearly his work,”jokes the artist Alex Westgate.

People enslaved by clothes: such different drawings by Tara Dugans
Young artist Tara Dugans reflects on the fact that in the modern world people no longer wear clothes, but are often a free app to it. In black-and-white and color illustrations, we see characters defeated and enslaved by things, simply lost in them.
