This illustrator beautifully combines traditional and digital techniques

Digital illustration of a cake on a plate.

Alexis Marcou is a British-Cypriot illustrator based in Larissa, Greece. Since 2008 he has collaborated with global brands including EA Sports, the NFL, Nike, PepsiCo and BMW, producing work that sits at the intersection of traditional craft and digital art.

His signature process is graphite shading that dissolves into digital colour, creating a fusion where the two disciplines become indistinguishable. Alongside commercial work, Alexis pursues self-initiated projects that explore darker conceptual territory. He has maintained deliberate visual anonymity since 2007 so you won't be seeing a profile picture of him here.
