Over The Rainbow

The illustrator and artist Donald Robertson is best known by his playful Instagram moniker @drawbertson, and the quirky illustrations and artwork that feature on this platform are indicative of his fun and whimsical style. According to him, being an artist is like being a farmer. “You grow things from nothing. Seeds of ideas become beautiful flowers. I think of it like that. Then I sell my flowers,” he says.

And having illustrated greats from Anna Wintour to the late Christian Dior, Robertson cheekily describes the fashion world as being full of “chic children” and likens his relationship with them to that of a big brother poking fun at a sibling. Robertson works as a creative director for cosmetic giant Estée Lauder while concurrently pursuing his artistic career, which includes creating original artworks as well as selling his joyful prints on merchandise, so it seems fitting that his most recent collaboration is with a fashion label.
