Illustrator Tim King takes you on an illustrated journey through 2020 using his inimitable and hugely engaging style of drawing. Each day spawned a new image as the year meandered from the optimistic start of a new decade into an apocalyptic behemoth that no-one could have imagined.

A Choice of Binding Styles

The book is available in both hardback and softback, each with its own unique charm. If your budget allows then this is a great way of targeting two different audiences with cover prices at two levels.

This is a seriously weighty publication and the spine alone is more than 2cms deep to hold the 388 inside pages. A great graphic win is the wrap-around cover with the Covid mask spanning the front cover round to the back cover. It is an instantly recognisable device that the reader associates with the year. So simple but effective.

The 210mm format is both cost-effective to print and lends itself equally well to portrait, landscape or square artwork. We challenge you to do a drawing each day for a year and print a similar printed record. This is a project that would work well as a Kickstarter.
