I went to the AOI awards exhibition at Somerset House and saw some nice illustrations. What was interesting about the exhibition is that it displayed the work on the walls in frames like a normal art exhibition, but in the middle of the room was a glass case showing the work in context - in a book, magazine, etc.
William Grill's delicate pencil drawings particularly stood out to me as showing incredible craft, as it was one of the few pieces on the walls that was original artwork that hadn't been through a digital process.
Jasu Hu also did a visually arresting set of illustrations that were nice in context, but even more amazing in large on the wall. I dunno why I didn't take a picture of these on the wall to be honest
