The grandeur and exotic allure of soaring through the skies on wings of steel blends with the innocent simplicity of yesteryear in Paulo Viveiros’ retro work “Air.” Born in England and residing in Australia, Viveiros is a successful freelance illustrator and designer whose passion for collecting vintage magazines, books, furniture and prints influences his contemporary yet nostalgic art. Created using both traditional and digital media which is rendered in a limited palette reminiscent of printing techniques of the past. Vintage and retro imagery are the nucleus of his work in this three part series that includes sister pieces “Sea” and “Train.”
