About Ifan Bates

Ifan studied graphic design at Wolverhampton University and has worked for design companies in London, Birmingham and Rotterdam in the Netherlands. He honed his illustration style on self initiated projects in his spare time. His inspirations range from music to films and also the work of Reggie Pedro, Friedrich Meckseper and Peter Blake amongst others. Ifan combines vintage and contemporary imagery to create mixed media collage. He uses Photoshop to create multi-layered work with a distinctive style. He likes to mix textures and colour and blends painted surfaces with found photographs and time worn papers.
