About Sam Taylor
Sam Taylor is an illustrator based in London, England. Drawing from the lumpy, brash aesthetic found in cartoons of the 90s, he presents critical and satirical subjects in a cunningly juvenile style. Precision draftsmanship, an evolving cast of characters, motifs and carefully considered colour schemes dominate Sam’s work. His clients include Converse, VICE, Pitchfork, BBC, Wired, The Guardian, Nike, i-D, GQ, WaterAid, Businessweek and Nickelodeon.

"I wanted to treat this show like a musician putting out a Greatest Hits CD. Like I'm Fleetwood Mac or something, except they have sales and I have 'likes'. It was quite hard picking the work as there are only eight spots (and they're all my babies) so I went through my external hard-drive and chose stuff that I think gives a nice rounded representation of what I do. It was really hard but I think I did OK. There's some gnarly stuff, some silly stuff and the little chicken wing who blew up on Instagram earlier this year, he's like a bonus track.” - Sam Taylor
