Marian Bantjes is a designer, artist and writer working internationally from her base on a small island off the west coast of Canada, near Vancouver. But it is her highly personal, obsessive and sometimes strange graphic work that has since brought her international recognition. Marian is known for her custom typography, detailed and lovingly precise vector art, her obsessive handwork, her patterning and ornamentation. Often hired to create custom art for magazines, advertising and special projects, Marian's work has an underlying structure and formality that frames its organic, fluid nature.
