Casson, Sophie

Sophie’s studio window looks out at a very busy urban street corner that faces a subway entrance, lofts, taxi parking and an Indian restaurant.  Her inspiration comes from various street art forms: graffiti, stencil art, underground posters, but also Polish posters and post-war prints.

She has won numerous illustration awards from Communication Arts, Applied Arts, SILA, Society of Publication designers, CAPIC, Mr. Christie’s Silver award, Lux and 3X3 Proshow.
