http://www.debutart.com/artist/flatliner-v2/biography"Jason Cook (AKA Jacey, Flatliner and Flatliner V2) has been a practicing digital illustrator and pixel pusher for around 10 years. Jason originally came from a photographic background and the progression to digital arts was a natural one. Jason has delved into music design, animation, social documentary photography, then on to art directing web sites for a new media company which before long lead him back to his real passion, combining photography and illustration with digital technology."

I came across the work of Jason Cook recently and his work has been inspiring for my final major project. His work tends to use photographs mixed with graffiti style backgrounds using lots of ink splats, lines and shapes. I have always been inspired by illustrations such as Jason's, whose style is similar to illustrator Miles Donovan but seems to be more commercial with the photographs that are used.
When I first came up with the idea to use abstract illustrations with lots of ink splats, lines, shapes and colour I was finding it hard to find people who used this technique in commercial work, but after finding Jason's work I am happy that my work would easily fit into my TV identity for E! Entertainment Television.
