This year's Oscar nominations become beautiful illustrations
Illustrator Olly Gibbs is back with his annual illustrations of this year's Oscar nominations

Revealed on Olly's Twitter page, the illustrations have become a staple in the run up to Oscar night. Nominations for the 89th Academy Awards were announced on January 24th, meaning Olly has to work quickly to get this images ready before the award night on February 26.
