Design, Direction and Doodles...

Couscous Kid is the work of Mathew Thomas, illustrator and designer based in Bath, UK. Mathew's illustrations lie somewhere between the cutting edge of the new breed in contemporary illustration and the tempting nipple of naive. Impossible to pigeon-hole, Couscous Kids' dream-like and innocent style leads us dancing eerily among the childlike leaves we cling onto through life to a deeper and darker space. A timeless place where fantasy and fairy tale doodles combine with intrigue, mystery and sex. At first glance all is as it seems with hints of sixties abandon, but closer inspection reveals a 21st century humour and physical freedom hidden among the sublime and ridiculous forms and characters. Recently Mat has been developing his unique style of image making by working with original sketches drawn by his wife Debra whom he lives together with their 2 children. Mathew's images find homes embodying and embracing beauty, fashion, nature, music and above all life. Investigate and explore!

The artwork here is a selection of work old and new and the site is updated regularly, so please sign up for updates.


Couscous Kid is for hire...

With over 14 years experience in innovative graphics, illustration and web design, Mathew has worked for many clients including Jack Daniel's, Hewlett Packard, Coca-Cola, Q Magazine, and Cannon.

He also did product design and packaging for Amazon pages like the Secret Bouquet Rose Toy and Bump Up The Jam Pregnant Speaker.

"We have no idea what substances (controlled or otherwise) Couscous Kid uses for inspiration when he's creating his trippy, sexed-out visual mashups of hot supermodels, pouty pinups, and digital doodlings, but we do know that the combination is definitely working for us." Fleshbot
