CAST & Columbia Center for the Arts in Hood River, OR are about to put on their winter play. This year the play is It’s A Wonderful Life! More than just a play, they are trying to recreate the experience of attending a live radio broadcast in the 1940’s.The Hood River News has a pretty cool article about all the work that’s gone into it.

Oh, and I did the poster!

From their website:

Lately I’ve had the opportunity to have my work featured in one of Portland’s local papers, The Portland Mercury. I’ve been a Merc fan for a while so it’s been great to be involved. The assignments I’ve gotten so far have been a lot of fun and I hope to do more. Here are the pieces I’ve had printed so far.

Story by Denis C. Theriault.

I probably over did the detail on this one, considering it was only going to be a 5×4 spot illustration. I really liked the concept from the art director though, so once I got the idea in my head there was no scaling it back.… KEEP READING!

Bic StoryboardsI recently storyboarded a commercial for Bic Pens, produced by the fine folks at Droptree Productions. Like most commercial productions, the schedule wasn’t very forgiving.

Of course it helps to have a director with a clear vision, like Brian Baldwin, overseeing things. While not every shot is going to exactly match the board, they served as a good jumping off point.… KEEP READING!

It was a busy holiday season for Love Toons. I had more commissions than anticipated from old and new clients and it kept me good and busy. It is always nice when a client has a creative idea for their Toon, and this year’s crop did not disappoint. Here are some of my favorite pieces from this year.

First off, here is one I made for my wife for Christmas. I’m my own favorite client this year. Deal with it.  LizMark

Just did another logo, this time for a local metal band called Tyger Fynger. Logos are always fun. I had a lot of freedom with this one and it was a blast. It’ll look great on a drum set or a shirt!

Messing around with Procreate again. The new version automatically records a time lapse of your process. I had no idea at the time but it is pretty cool. So here is me playing around with the new version by drawing Mega Man. Not the most dynamic composition but I think it looks ok. I’ve never watched a video of myself drawing and I got a kick out of it so here it is.
