Cartoon Illustrations of Iconic Artists in a Whimsical Provençal Scene
Whimsical cartoon portraits of Frida Kahlo, Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, and Salvador Dalí — each reimagined in a sun-drenched Provençal landscape, infused with vibrant colors, humor, and iconic references to their work.
Each hand-drawn digital illustration is created in my signature style — expressive lines with digital gouache and watercolor textures. This series is an homage to creativity, color, and visual storytelling. The characters aren’t just parodied — they are celebrated. See this and other high quality illustration art by Ian David Marsden as art prints in various sizes in the Modicum Editions gallery.


Iconic Artists with a Playful Twist
What if Picasso walked a cubist dog? Or Dalí’s paint palette melted into his signature warped clock? These portraits spark curiosity and joy — perfect for collectors, design lovers, and art institutions looking for editorial illustration with personality.
