A Illustration by Abner Dean for Life Magazine for some articles over George Orwell’s Novel “1984”.I may be alone in this camp but personally I think Dean’s art style suits Orwell’s novel perfectly it’s cartoonish and has a slight unsettling feel to it just fits the vibe of the book perfectly I wish he illustrated the full novel he did a couple more illustrations for this article though.

Beautiful covers by kinda forgotten cartoonist Don Herold an early master of minimalism in cartooning a lot of his drawings take whatever is being depicted and boil them down to the simplest shapes to near stick figure proportions but you can tell he knows how to exaggerate the simplicity to make good gags.
