Can anyone suggest illustrators who make use of leftovers/rubbish such as plastic, plastic bags, newspaper, scrap card, scrap paper, bottle caps,scrap pieces of fabric in their illustrations? (it doesn't have to include all of the above materials, but I need to get a sense of how they incorporate 1 or 2 of the materials together).Would be very helpful for a project I'm busy on.

surely there are up and coming illustrators or designers that use found pieces in their work? I'm looking at this type of illustration as I want to reflect the idea of reuse in my design project..

I did use it a lot more, but I still use found card, envelopes and reciepts, tags, etc as a base for my work and will often make up collages from found scrap to use as texture...
