  • Here at Handsome Frank, we've been collaborating with an array of filmmakers to create ‘A Little Film About’; a series of short films about our artists, exploring their work, process, and inspirations.
    This short film is about Tokyo based illustrator Luis Mendo. You can see Luis' work at www.handsomefr...
    Luis Mendo’s journey to becoming an illustrator, is perhaps not the typical tale. For a start, he had a successful 20-year career as an Art Director and magazine designer, before coming to a crossroads in life. Relocating from Amsterdam to Tokyo, a change of scenery brought with it a change in career and he began to explore illustration. Now, some seven years later, Luis tells us he’s still ‘learning everyday’ and wow, what a lot he’s learnt!
    Describing his work as ‘digital analog’, the term alludes to its inherent tactile nature and warmth. His images often evoke positivity and exude a cheerful nature. Clever use of light and colour also exemplify his unique style and he often captures moments of serenity and calm in his images. It may have taken him a while to get here, but we’re looking forward to seeing where this illustration journey goes next.

    I came across his exhibition in Seoul this November! It’s so nice to get to know about him. Especially when it comes to he lives in Japan with his family, since I’m Japanese:)) I’m fascinated and feeling great to see how he gets all of these inspirations in his daily life. This film was played at the very beginning of the exhibition, I can watch this again and again! Thanks for creating such an amazing film✰

    This is fantastic! Something about this video that makes me feel fuzzy and warm. I love Mendo's work! I really want to visit his residency, I think it's around an hour away from my place.
