Meet Tim Doyle, contemporary illustrator, print maker and king of ‘nerd cool’. Drawing inspiration from a life long love of comic books and video games, Doyle creates prints of inimitable style that incorporate cultural icons from the music industry to art house film into a graphic aesthetic like no other. ‘Ready To Believe You’ takes cult film Ghostbusters and creates a striking print, in the detailed, illustrative style of a graphic novel. In tones of scarlet, ghost grey, and inky black, Doyle depicts the familiar Firestation HQ, as the Ghostbusters van pulls out. Ominous red clouds hang low in the sky, while papers flutter in the deserted street, bringing a film noir feel to the image. It’s a powerful snapshot, filled with painstaking detail, for a compelling piece of contemporary print work.
