Kieran Gabriel: Every Day Illustrations in “Common” – A Coffee Table Illustrated Art Book ????

Kieran Gabriel, a talented UK-based artist, recently embarked on a journey to create a collection of his superb illustrated fine art prints into a single, hardback book titled “Common”. Filled with illustrations depicting everyday life in the UK, “Common” is a visual narrative that resonates with the ordinary and extraordinary moments we encounter daily. It’s a veritable “This is England” of art books.

The Book

Common” is an A4 case-bound book that exudes quality and durability, a perfect coffee table centrepiece. The cover, printed onto 170gsm silk, is a triumph of an eye-catching orange hue, wrapped over a greyboard case, and finished with a matt laminate. The result is a visually stunning and tactile experience before you even turn the first page.

Inside, “Common” features 134 pages printed full colour onto 115gsm uncoated paper, offering a beautiful canvas for Gabriel’s illustrations. The A4 hardback book also includes 2x 4pp end papers printed onto 170gsm uncoated paper. The entire book is trimmed, collated, and case bound, providing a perfect showcase for Gabriel’s artistry.

The Illustrations

Each illustration in “Common” is a testament to Gabriel’s unique style and artistic vision. His work transforms everyday scenarios into captivating visuals, inviting viewers to explore, interpret, and connect with the art in their own way. Whether it’s a mundane moment or a special event, Gabriel’s illustrations encapsulate the essence of daily life in the UK, making “Common” a celebration of the ordinary turned extraordinary.

RODNEY MATTHEWS, LEGENDARY CONCEPTUAL ARTIST
Ex Why Zed makes self publishing a truly pleasurable experience!
Brilliant communication from start to finish. Mike had endless patience for the many questions we asked. The guides provided were easy to follow and super helpful (the video guides are a must watch too). Our order of hardback illustrated children's books was delivered expertly packaged and on time. As for the finished product itself - stunning - a real joy to finally hold, beautifully made and perfectly printed! We couldn't have asked for more. Well, we did - we instantly placed an order for paperback children's colouring books too, which we are equally as happy with. Look forward to working with Ex Why Zed again in the future.
