Ralph Steadman

Ive recently been reading 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' by Hunter S Thompson, which is illustrated by Ralph Steadman. I didn't think that I liked the style of illustration, but the more I read of the book, the more appropriate they become. His use of energetic line, ink splatters, his mix of free hand and geometric shapes give the illustrations a sense of madness, which is definitely appropriate for the story....
