I had not known about Elliot Quince until he mailed me. Now I know what a fantastic illustrator he is. He has this love of football and drawing and a desire to help his community – now he has combined this all. He is planning to draw 32 illustrations of top footballers, one each from each country in the world cup finals. These drawings will be exhibited at the Offside Gallery in Islington, UK. Anyone can buy these paintings. The price of each of these exquisite illustrations range from GBP 100 to 300. The money collected from the sales would go to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at the Luton and Dunstable Hospital. Why this hospital? There’s a reason.

If you would like to buy, please do – here is the link. If you want to spread the word, please do – here is the website. I’ve put some of his very brilliant work. This is just a sample while you can visit his website and see the rest for yourself:

It’s a pity that he has not drawn the likes of Lampard, Terry, Malouda, Anelka etc. It would be great to have such an illustration of a trophy holding Chelsea team. Anyway, my personal favourite in his work is Lionel Messi. I think it’s a fantastic illustration. It captures the essence of Messi – the youth, the childish innocence, the baby smile, the lovely combination of his hairstyle, his nose and his teeth. I love it.

That’s it. Let’s do our bit. Catch you later.
