Nicolas Delort

I happened to stumble across the work of Nicolas Delort, a Parisian illustrator. He works in a variety of styles and media but I was most impressed by his work with this scratchboard-y technique – very time-consuming and requiring a lot of finesse. Check out these examples to see his process – pretty dang impressive.

 ‘Harry could smell salt and hear rushing waves; a light chilly breeze ruffled his hair as he looked out at moonlit sea and star-strewn sky.’

More of Delort’s work can be seen on his blog, or on tumblr.
