Artist and children's book illustrator Andrew Skilleter has long been associated with Doctor Who, commissioned to bring life to the many books, videos, magazines and CDs available on the market at one time or another. Born in the UK, Andrew is also an official Star Wars artist and had founded Who Dares Publishing in addition to the publication of several books in both the UK and US. New commissions accepted - just visit his official webpage for more details!
And so to the free print...
"Purchase any two prints from the shop between now and December 5th [2011] and you will receive, completely free, a unique facsimile A4 print of Andrew’s pencil ‘rough’ for the Doctor Who Target Invasion book cover, reproduced to the same size as the original. It is printed in 8 Colours using light fast archival inks with a lifespan of over 75 years and printed on 202 gsm cream water colour paper, each produced, approved, titled, and signed by the artist.
"This print will not be released commercially and is likely to become a collector’s item. Set discreetly at the bottom of the print in grey type is the following text: 'A Fascimile of the ‘Rough’ drawing for the The Invasion for the Doctor Who Target series as submitted to W H Allen 1984'"
New art has been added to the shop including Target book covers The Invasion and Sunmakers. Do also keep up with news via Andrew's personal blog.
There is no denying that Andrew's work is both beautiful and a fantastic way to celebrate your favourite show, person or character...
