Society Of Illustrators 54

For the first time my work has been accepted by the legendary Society Of Illustrators. Ever since art school I've wanted to be a member of the society and be included in the annual. A few hours ago I got the call that my tribute to George Romero and J.C. Leyendecker made the cut. I'm very excited. With any luck I'll be able to make it to the show's opening.

Trix - Fruit-Flavored Corn Cereal

Just in time for Easter, here's the Trix Rabbit. As part of series of mock Breakfast Cereal illustrations I'm working on I decided to try something entirely new for Trix. Rather than the traditional sugar craved maniacal bunny I went with a smooth ukulele strumming rabbit in bow tie, wingtips and mask.

Sugar Teeth

I just finished my second mock cereal box sample. The first was a tribute to Leyendecker and George Romero, this one is a tribute to Sugar Crisp's Sugar Bear. The goal here was to make the cuddly little guy a bit more realistic than we've seen him in the past while keeping him stylishly dressed in his red turtleneck.

Funny note, while researching the images for this piece I found out that Canada is one of the few places that Sugar Crisp is still Sugar Crisp. The cereal got a PC makeover and is Golden Crisp most places. Does that mean the Sugar Bear is the Golden Bear now? Just wondering.
