In his illustration Olive Town, Ben Sears fills the canvas with the everyday working day to day everyday living of a comic-impressed avenue corner. Sears populates the scene with any array of visually powerful citizens, just about every providing a dose of direct character strength.
In the print Rock Castle City, Sears eliminates the floor, the Earth alone — the eponymous metropolis suspended in the sky, clouds over and under. The lines are loose, slim. The colors reflect a ideal afternoon light-weight. His fashion is comic, cartoonish in the identical feeling as the operate of Moebius.
There is a obvious fact in these extremely hard cityscapes, every single inch clammers for interest, not with flailing arms but with condensed appeal.
