Kaleidoscopic Pop Culture Portraits by Van Orton
Published Dec 3, 2025
Italian twins Van Orton are back with a fresh wave of nostalgic illustrations. Their signature style is still unmistakable, with bold outlines, layered shapes and electric colors that carry their work forward with the same loud confidence they are known for.
What’s fun about following the duo over time is noticing how they keep finding new ways to remix familiar icons. They clearly enjoy world building, even when the canvas is only a single frame, and that playful complexity gives each piece its own pulse.
Over the years, their client list has grown into something of a cultural time capsule, packed with names like Ducati, Universal Music, Sony Playstation, Marvel, Ray Ban and ESPN. Blink 182, Disney and Empire Magazine have also tapped them, which makes perfect sense when you see how effortlessly they blend nostalgia, character design and graphic punch.
You can explore more the duo’s work over on their website, Behance and Instagram.
