Stylised illustration of five colourful figures dancing and jumping around a DJ turntable set against a bright turquoise background

Taking a very bright and colourful approach, Toni's illustrations are stripped right back to simple bold shapes and lines to create striking, graphic images that don't try so hard. There's a confidence to his work and an understanding that, when in doubt, it's better to avoid over-complicating things. Take a look at more of his iconic work on his portfolio.
