I recently received my printed copy of the Premier Sotheby’s Privileged Access brochure. I was commissioned to illustrate the brochure late last year, and while it took a long time to get to production, I think the final piece looks great. The team at Strada were great to work with and I love what they did with the design and layout.
Happy 4th of July! In the spirit of the day, I’d like to share a job I worked on for BP’s (Beyond Petroleum) Team USA campaign. Late last year I was called to do work on some storyboards for a film production house out in Brooklyn. When you do this type of job, you never really know if what you draw will see the light of day. So you can imagine how thrilling it was to see my drawings come to life on TV this past week. The commercials for the BP Team USA campaign have begun airing as the 2012 London Olympics approach. I’ve spent some time today watching the videos and profiles of the athletes, and their compelling stories made me a proud supporter of their goals. I wish them and Team USA all the best this summer.

Here are a few drawings and their corresponding live action shots:
I was pleased to be asked to contribute my reportage drawings to VAROOM! magazine. The publisher Derek was looking to feature illustrators that reportage live music and he was a fan of the drawings I made of Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks last year. Here is a post about that show.
VAROOM! is a great illustration based magazine so check out their website and support the cause!
My cover has been accepted by American Illustration! Thanks to the judges and everyone at AI-AP for the recognition!
I’m very excited to share my latest book cover, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. It is a classic and one of my favorites, so it was really a dream job to receive the commission from Random House. I love creating lino-cut prints and I thought it was a perfect way to handle this.
Check out this and more in my book jacket portfolio on the new Studio 1482 website.
I’m pleased to announce my inclusion in the Quarry Books release “The Art of Urban Sketching“. It’s a great book filled with many incredible artists, including fellow Studio 1482 members Veronica Lawlor and Margaret Hurst. The book is based on art created for the international sketching blog Urban Sketchers.
I’d like to say a special thank you to author/artist, and Urban Sketchers founder, Gabi Campanario for all of his hard work in putting this book together.
I hope you’ll pick it up at your local book store or online at quarrybooks.com
It’s been a while since I worked for Gulfshore Business, but last month I was asked to create 2 illustrations for an article about tourism. The first dealing with ‘culinary tourism’ and the second, ‘medical tourism’. Basically, Florida tourism is being driven by food and healthcare! You can read the article here.
