Marine Illustration Portfolio
The Vancouver International Boat Show opens today, so I thought I'd create a micro-site that highlights some of my marine illustration.
I'll be heading over shortly to check out the latest in marine technology and snap a few photos.

Motor Yacht Cutaway Illustration
Recently completed a cutaway illustration of an 80-foot flybridge megayacht and its cabin.
Technical illustration allows for the communication of a vast amount of visual information. In this case, the entirety of the vessel - inside and out - can be presented in a single image. The quality of design, materials and finishes can be emphasized. At the same time, distracting details such as bilge pumps and thrusters can be diminished or omitted to maintain clarity.
To capture the same amount of information with product photography would require numerous shots from various angles, each diminishing valuable layout space - and more importantly - diminishing the viewer's attention.
