Design & Illustration for WaterMelon

December 6, 2023

Inigo is a Bristol based graphic designer and illustrator whose practice focuses on the rural landscape, folk cultures, and ancient history. He wants to enchant the land, embed stories into forgotten places and encourage others to find their own connections to the countryside. He also loves games of all shapes and sizes, but especially games that spin compelling yarns.

In 2023, Inigo achieved a Distinction in Masters of Graphic Arts at UWE, building upon a First Class Degree in History from King’s College London in 2019. His creative practice draws from these qualifications and combines them with a love of walking, playing and adventuring.

Enchant the Land is a continuation of his Masters project.

I like working on intricate pen drawings as much as bold minimalist posters. Blending typography into my illustrations allows me to push for new styles, and I’m happiest when exploring new looks or different media.

Look through my blog if you want to know what I’m doing, why I’m doing it and how I’m making it happen. Some of them are a bit silly, like all good ideas should be.
