jon burgerman


Jon Burgerman has cutout pictures of animals above his desk where he works. The first to be added, and probably still his favourite, is a baby penguin going to the toilet, with some force. When not cooing over nature's fluffy defecating creations he likes doodling. His doodles have adorned t-shirts, snowboards, magazine covers, books, toys, computer games and airplane sick-bags. Working freelance enables him to snooze through most of the day; he is at heart a very lazy person. Info by Idressmyself.co.uk.

I will contact him soon and ask him about who inspires his work and so on!

His work inspires my own in that it uses a playful style that has its own uniformed presentation.

Hi Jon,

As part of my art course, I'm obliged to contact the phenomenal Burgerman. Argh no, I'm scared!
