Introduction Combining sticks of graphite with splashes of digital colour, Ben Jelfs creates illustrations that are as unique as they are eye catching. Some are comical, some are hyper-realistic, but all are executed with charm and personality. After spending 14 years as an award-winning Art Director, Ben took some time out to rekindle his love for drawing. Good thing he did, because few can take a brief like Ben. Due to his years of experience as an Art Director, his drawings are alive with a sympathetic insight into how a story should be told. It’s the perfect equilibrium of technique, sophistication and framing that allows Ben to deliver much more than lines on a piece of paper. Based in Adelaide, Ben is currently available for illustration, visualising & storyboarding.
