Illustrated Interview: Rebecca Enya Lourey
The big dog!
Mad Love
June 6, 2018

Just like the Hall of Fame illustrators/cartoonists who inspired her, Rebecca Enya Lourey (Bec) is taking Sydney illustration to the next level.

In recent years the self-titled ‘Patron Saint of Efficient Sketch Symbols’ (apt and true) has become renown for her images of feminine characters.  Whether smashing their hair around wildly in a mosh pit, sitting in front of fan on a sweltering hot night, or peeling an orange with demonic energy, each piece acts like a snapshot into the lives of these mysterious women. With clean line work and meticulous detail, Bec has truly solidified her status as a an artist to keep an eye out for.

We asked the big dog herself some questions about her work, advice and a buncha of other stuff! Check it out! BAO!!!
