The Wedding invitation...

A good friend of ours is getting married at the end of October and instead of getting her a gift, she asked for my wife and I to design a pattern for her wedding invitation. She wanted us to try to incorporate both their interests, like food, traveling, modernism, wine and more. This is what we came up with...

The wedding is going to be in Palm Springs and my wife and I are pretty excited to see all the goodness there as they are revered for their mid-century homes there. Plan on taking lot s and lots of pictures. Thanks for looking and enjoy...

Welcome...

I was commissioned by a Dr. Stephen Frueh, marriage counselor/motivational speaker, to do a book cover for his latest book "From Marginal to Magnificient- How to Make Your Marriage Sing."

We went through several compositions, but they were all variations of the same theme, a couple on stage bowing to a cheering audience. Exactly who is saying "You're welcome" isn't quite so clear. Is it the audience or the couple? Or both?

Anyhow, below is a a more complete picture of the illustration and a the actual jacket of the book itself.


Stephen was a joy to work with am glad to be working with him on another project which is still under wraps. Once that drops, I will make sure to post it up here...



And as a throwback to last week's DrawerGeeks Incredible's topic and Illustration Friday's Strong theme, this is the illustration I created.

As always, this piece is still a work in progress. So for now, enjoy...
