veggies field guide: take 1

four vegetable characters

more to come...

I'm having a lot of fun with this illustration style. During my downtime at work, I have been illustrating vegetable people with faces, etc. My co-worker looked over my shoulder and said, "Why don't you make a field guide with your illustrations? Assign each veggie person with their scientific name and a brief description about them." So, I followed his suggestion and it was a lot of fun. I'll post those samples soon. I am beginning to think I could do this for a living... :)

a year in the life of a gumdrop

so I decided to be productive with my downtime at work. very recently, I came across an illustrator's work that I really liked. so, in his honor, I created similarly styled illustrations for a calendar. I like to call it "a year in the life of a gumdrop." included in this blog entry are some of my illustrations from the calendar (in order) : march, april, july, may and october. enjoy! :)

illustration friday: trick or treat

ghosts love candy from spiders.

eat more cake...

I decided to test out a new illustration style. I am interested in retro-style animation and illustration; i.e., James Flora, the end credits in Ratatouille, the beginning credits in Monsters', Inc., Golden Book illustrations, 60's era record album covers and ads... There is something really unique about the retro-esque, "Jetson's era" illustrations.
