Kelsey Heinrichs

This is an editorial illustration by Kelsey Heinrichs for Wired UK's article: Society isn't a start up and sharing's not caring.
Really strong message and works well in its purpose. i like the use of the black to show shadows in both block colour and in fanning out lines. With the frame being round it looks like the viewer is seeing it through a camera too. I also enjoed the little points of heinrichs personality coming through in the piece, mainly her humour as along with the man being x-rayed so is the cat, his piggy bank and even the photo of a couple on his desk is skeletal. 
I've been seeing quite a bit of work lately using an orange/blue collour palette and it seems to work well together, specially with pieces that have a subtle humour to them.
