The Japan Auto Camping Federation once again asked me to illustrate the cover of their annual guide. Between three concepts, they selected this typical North American scene showing life on a campground with a big black bear supporting the cause.
Another Mac Style product using our Smooth Sailor and other images from the Modern Ark collection. The Japanese confections are little dairy-size cups filled with a variety of fruit flavored gelatins. So sweet!
Uppercase has just published their second edition of Work/Life, a directory of illustrators from around the world. Above is my spread, featuring photos of my studio by Bernard Brault. The book is an enjoyable look at the studios and lives of 100 illustrators from Canada, the US, the UK, Australia and Scandinavia, just to name a few. There are lots of new faces and talent to discover. The editor, Janine Vangool, has done a wonderful job of assembling, designing and writing the book all the while balancing her own work/life. A must read for aspiring illustrators who want to peek into the pros’ minds and the pros who want a peek into their colleagues’ creative spaces.
Here’s Volume 1 of the MacStyle catalogue, just off the presses! Thanks to all the people at MacStyle who worked hard since last September to bring the products to life.
