The post-truth world

Two illustrations for The Economist for an article inside called ‘Yes, I’d lie to you‘. “Dishonesty in politics is nothing new; but the manner in which some politicians now lie, and the havoc they may wreak by doing so, are worrying.”

‘Barked Once’ is from ‘Derek Bacon’. 

I’m originally from Bedfont, near Heathrow, but I now live in a really quiet part of the Netherlands. I’ve also lived in Poole, Madrid, Jakarta and Amsterdam.

The pictures are made in a few different ways. Some of the illustration work is drawn digitally, but I also love working in ink and pencils, especially if I’m doing people. Sometimes the pictures end up being a mix of things.

To commission an illustration, or anything else you’d like to ask about, feel free to get in touch below.

Cheerio,
derek
