Oskar illustration Signs Ben Jomo

Ben is a Bristol-based illustrator who casts striking and diverse characters that radiate drama, confidence and fluidity. His approach is meticulously considered, and in his illustrative world all types of people are celebrated. Within his work he blends elevated street style, editorial poses, purposeful composition and a refined colour palette. To leave a lasting imprint on the viewer, Ben likes to create narratives that are modern, relatable and bursting with energy. He draws inspiration from club culture, his own lived experiences and the occasional iconic dog walker.

On joining Oi! Ben said “When the opportunity arose to be represented by Oskar Illustration, it was an easy decision to make. The selection of artists they represent are outstanding, and collectively they all bring something unique to the industry. I’m excited to have my work showcased alongside theirs. Oi! has made this process super easy, they have been welcoming and supportive every step of the way. It’s been clear from the beginning that they have their illustrators’ best interests at heart.”

Oskar Illustration founder Oli Roberts commented: “When I came across Ben’s work I knew straight away that he was an artist we wanted to represent. His compositions, characters and distinctive fluoro colour palette ooze style and energy. It’s exciting to see a style that I believe is so unique and ownable, qualities that are fundamental to us here at Oi! Ben is a lovely guy and with a great attitude with whom our existing and future clients will enjoy working.”
