Thank you, everyone, for your interest in my illustrated poster for Bre Pettis & Kio Stark’s Done Manifesto, which appeared on FastCoDesign and Lifehacker recently. For similar work, I invite you to check out my editorial illustration portfolio, Textbook Example. High quality giclée prints of the Done Manifesto poster are available via ImageKind (or ArtFlakes in Europe).
I’ve been fascinated with augmented reality (AR) since learning about projects like Layar and WordLens. These apps combine the camera, GPS, gyros, processing power and constant connectedness of smart phones to add layers of meta-information on top of the world around us. My interest in this application of technology and information should come as no surprise—technical [...]
I’ve been bound hand and foot over the past couple of months, but now I can tip my hand and share some of what has been keeping my hands busy. Work seems to get handed to me in themes, and if my terrible idioms didn’t hand it to you, lately it’s been hands and feet. Here [...]
It’s been a busy summer! Working with great clients on really interesting projects, teaching my robot intern how to draw, developing my editorial illustration portfolio, and now adding a little polish to this site. In addition to the sliding showcase above, I’ve also added new work in my Technical Illustration and Infographics portfolios. Take a [...]
Spring has sprung, so I’ve dusted off some recent work and added it to my technical illustration and infographics portfolios. Lots more to come—stay tuned!
I got an early start on my spring cleaning and today I debut two new portfolios. The first is a selection of information graphics, or infographics, I’ve created for various clients. Infographics are any form of visual communication design, regardless of content or style. Since technical illustration might be considered a subset of this broadly [...]
For their July/August 2010 issue, AARP The Magazine contacted me again to create an infographic for their AARP & You survey. That month’s survey was about informal volunteering; donating one’s time outside of an organization or association. Unfortunately, the dataset was rather slim. It consisted of two points that indicated an increase in popularity of informal [...]
Earlier in the year, I worked with the world’s largest circulation magazine, AARP The Magazine, which focuses on aging issues. AD Joanna Foucheux had some survey data about caregivers’ preferences for different types of government support, and wanted to communicate that data visually. Caregivers were given a list of possible government support options and were asked [...]
Some one-step how-to spot illustrations done for Canadian Family magazine’s Summer 2010 issue; How to eat the whole lobster, How to whistle with a blade of grass, How to make a jumpsie rope and How to raise an astronomer. Thanks to AD Colleen Nicholson who made this project a summer breeze.
Way back in 2005, Mister Jalopy proposed an Owner’s Bill of Rights, a maker’s memorandum requesting repairability for the products around us. It became a manifesto for the maker community, a modus operandi for open sourcers and forward-thinking manufacturers. I’m not the most capable maker – maybe only a tinkerer. But if something breaks I [...]
