Donald Robertson @drawbertson
181k followers
Robertson’s distinctive style comes from his fantastic use of vivid colours and a variety of textures and techniques such as paint, graphite and creative use of collaging using scraps of metallic leather. We would all adore one of these up on our walls but with his most recent prints modelled from New York fashion week selling for $3,000-$4,500 they don’t come cheap!

Jenny Walton @jennymwalton

Fashion director of The Sartorialist, Walton’s Instagram if full of fabulous fashion inspiration from street style to illustrations to Walton’s own wardrobe. Her chic and simple style is reflected in her drawings making use of white space and rarely outlining her drawings to give them an urgent yet surprisingly detailed look; I can imagine her scribbling down quick sketches in between meetings or on her way to dinner in a yellow cab.
