His RoboCop artwork for an album cover captures the gritty atmosphere of the original film through explosive reds and a high-contrast style, while his Atari-inspired composition takes a more psychedelic approach, filling the frame with retro gaming imagery and eye-popping colors. Across Estevan’s portfolio, his use of grain, halftone dots and subtle color misregistration evokes the printed textures of vintage comic books, paperbacks and screen-printed posters.</p>\n<p>For more
