Paul Wearing, Illustrator, Chicago

Description

This striking vertical illustration by Chicago-based illustrator Paul Wearing presents a bold abstract composition against a textured neutral background. In the center, a graphic silhouette of a kneeling figure holds an arrow near its head, accompanied by dripping red shapes. Flanking the central figure are stylized geometric skyscrapers rendered in blocks of black, bright blue, muted orange, and mustard yellow with rectangular white window cutouts. The mid-century modern aesthetic relies on flat color planes, sharp linear contours, and a subtle vintage paper texture throughout.
