Fun Magazine Spread Illustration

Recently I created two spreads and a fun logo for AAA Traveler Magazine. This is the first of the two spreads and the logo. The assignment was to depict fun activities to do while on vacation in Florida. Some of the destinations mentioned in the article include Disney World, Universal Studios, Lego Land and beach activities. The Minion on the roller coaster still cracks me up! It was a fun project to work on because after having lived in Florida for many years, all those destinations mentioned were familiar to me. Makes me wanna go back and do the parks again and get in some beach time!

Thanx AAA for such a fun project!!!

Monster Character Design Doodle Break

This is how I treat myself while working on my illustration deadlines at Fian.com. A quick fun monster character design doodle in my sketchbook...then back to work. It always keeps my creative juices flowing. I use Faber Castell India Ink markers and a Moleskin sketchbook...keepin' it simple...keepin' it real. Maybe I'll get the opportunity to create this in full color for an illustration assignment. That would be sweet!

Doodling While Sick In Bed

I was in bed sick for 3 days last week. Doodled this Speckled Breasted Horned Dogger one afternoon in bed in my sketchbook with a ball point pen. When I'm sick...I still get bored. :-)

Sneak Peek Closeup Of New Illustration

Sneak peek closeup of something I am working on now. I can't reveal the client or what it's for yet but I did get the approval from the client to show a portion of it. As you can see, my naming convention for layers is almost non existent. :-)
