Graphic design & illustration from geek and game culture.

With the recent home release of J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek I though I would post these gorgeous portraits by illustrator Jesse Lefkowitz. The line work, color, and use of texture are distinctive of Jesse’s work. I’m loving the decidedly retro qualities and the relationship that exists between the individual pieces thanks to the supporting elements found in the background. Lefkowitz, a Virginia native, attended the Rhode Island School of Design and now works out of and resides in Berkeley, California.

You can find more of Jesse’s work on his website or check out his blog for a WarGames inspired editorial illustration about the economy and a satirical illustration of Jessica Simpson’s larger-than-life rump for BUST magazine.
