Where exceptional illustration and design skills merge to make you smile. Smile from the awesome image and/or design created, but smile at having your vision realized in print or web form.

I have 25 years experience as an accomplished and award-winning illustrator/designer/creative guru. Yes, I do prefer illustrating my characters for literature or commerce use. Whether illustrating a children's book, designing the new mascot for a college in Massachusetts, or creating a company brand, as is the Michelin Man and the Pillsbury dough boy are to their companies. I draw CHARACTER! Distinctive, provocative, and humorous, that's what I do best. I can be whimsical, or I can be dark and mysterious... I can embrace a story and fulfill the author's and/or client's vision.



Partial client list:
Sony Records (Columbia and Epic labels), Interscope Records, Polydor Records, Geffen Records, Universal Pictures, Westwood One, ABC Radio Networks and Harcourt Publishing/Silver Editions, Zoe Life Publishing, Better Day Publishing.

Please visit my website for a more in-depth presentation of who I am and what I can offer to you as a creative professional... as both illustrator... and designer. Just about the whole package.

Work terms:I start with sketches, plain and simple. We don't proceed to final digital art until you are happy with both concept, technique and follow-through. I will deliver the final digital files, optimized for your specific printing or web applications.



I prefer doing business using Guru's payment systems secured through SafePay/Escrow. However, I am open to negotiation of terms. Guru employers will own the copyrights on any or all awarded projects,
unless a different arrangement is made. (Example, royalty agreement in lieu of full payment.)



If you wish to send the money via Moneygram, Western Union, or wire transfer, you will be responsible for transference fees. Thank you!
