This and That

This and That

When it rains it pours! For the last couple of weeks I’ve been juggling several client projects at various stages of completion. I’ve recently finished a marker comp, an illustration for a print ad, and some storyboards for a TV commercial pitch. I’m currently working on a toy design, packaging illustrations for three different clients, and character designs for two animation projects. If all goes well soon I’ll also be co-supervising my first short film! More on that later.

Needless to say I’m barely keeping up with my email much less this blog. But I haven’t forgotten you, my faithful readers. I’m hoping to write some new content soon. In the mean time, here’s a few quick links I hope you will find interesting:
