Adam Oehlers

Adam Oehlers has a wonderful collection of illustrations and sculpture. His characters are so distinct…so alive…

Here we have one image from a series of Cinderella Jumprope Rhymes. The rhyme for this one: “Cinderella dressed in Black, killed all the robots with her BLAST ATTACK!” (Where was this when I was a child?)

This fine fellow comes from a story inspired by a curiosity shop in Norwich (UK) that had a huge owl taking up residence in the back room.

And this cat is the villain of an upcoming graphic novel (while he does look rather mischeivous, I fear I love cats too much to hold it against him).

His sculptures are wonderful as well.

  1. These are fantastic! There’s something of Roald Dahl and Quentin Blake taken to the next level about it. I can also see why the Anonymous fellow would link to Machinarium, similar sense of dingy decay. Also robots!

    • Thank you for this video clip. Why can’t I hear music piping through the streets and turn a corner to find a robot band responsible for it?
