David Junkin

MONTREAL, CANADA

David Junkin has a unique aesthetic and sensibility that quickly gets to the core of his subject matter.

Unafraid to tackle any topic from the pope to pop culture, Dave doesn’t approach a subject – he attacks it, deconstructs it, stretches it, turns it inside out. It’s this kind of raw energy that has been evident throughout David’s entire career both as an award-winning art director and illustrator.

David’s illustrations are the sum total of a wide range of media such as acrylics, pencil, charcoal, a whole lot of odds and ends, and a few other digital tricks up his sleeve. He was featured and nominated as one of the artists in the Lurzer’s Archive Special “200 BEST ILLUSTRATORS WORLDWIDE” in 2012
