    Some works of art can be really mind-blowing, not just because they are beautiful, but because they hold within inconspicuous details that can only be noticed if you take a closer look. Artists often include tiny details in their works as a way to convey a secret message or to challenge the viewers. Just like the drawings of Richard Berner, Brighton-based illustrator and painter, featuring an impressive array of cultural iconography. At first glance, his illustrations seem like simple depictions of popular subjects including famous landmarks, legendary celebrities, well-known artworks, flowers, animals, and even Star Wars characters.

    Berner is known for his playful drawings that entice the viewers to take a closer look. And if you look closely, you’ll discover that the large image is made up tiny details that look like lost souls by the thousands. The tiny ghost-like figures, which the artist refer to as ‘champs’, are drawn with minimal yet vivid lines that collectively create a mesmerizing pattern. A spooky yet a fun piece of statement, the anguish-stricken souls create a darker layer to the image that isn’t immediately seen at first glance.
