Catherine Pearson, Illustrator, London

Description

This digital illustration by London-based illustrator Catherine Pearson employs a striking cubist and geometric style centred around the theme of chess. The composition features a woman in profile on the left gazing towards a prominent white queen chess piece in the foreground, set against a rich background of deep greens, reds, and golds with a textured grain finish. To the right, a block of four perforated postage stamps displays abstract equestrian or knight chess iconography alongside the text "120 Helvetia". Multilingual text at the bottom commemorates the International Chess Federation across four languages. The piece demonstrates sophisticated faceted planes, bold graphic shapes, and a rich, textured color palette.
