"Kate Gibb studied Printed Textiles at Middlesex University before her studio gradually expanded during time completing her MA at St Martin's in London. Music has presented itself as a major outlet for her work, providing sleeve artwork for The Chemical Brothers, Simian, Bob Marley, Suede, My Computer and recently The Magic Numbers, amongst many more.
Kate Gibb’s client list is impressive and includes involvement with many Japanese magazines such as Relax, idea and most recently Atmosphere. In the UK she produced seventeen covers for the re-issue of the H G Wells’ back catalogue commissioned by Penguin Books. Her background in textiles and love of printed ephemera combined with an acute sense of colour has led her to working with fashion brands including Dries Van Noten, Levis, Lee and Adidas." - http://www.bigactive.com/illustration/kate-gibb
Kate Gibb has very interesting work in which she edits photos that she has taken and then uses colours to emphasize different parts and/or people in them, she also takes photos of a model in different pose, for example in the blue and pink image above she has taken a picture of a basketball player in many poses throught him playing a game, then she has layered them on top iof each other, this gives it a great effect and makes it seem really dramtic.
I like Kate Gibb's work as it is colourful and she uses many different techniques in an effective way and her work is very pleasing to the eye.
