Mind numbing pattern #45
I love patterns, and have been obsessed with drawing them recently. The first job is for Plansponser. I just had to illustrate the words "Play Ball!" I came up with these ideas, one of the rejected drawings inspired my next project.
This poster is for Cramer Krasselt an agency in charge of the annual Croquet Ball, Children's Benefit. Once again I had a lot of freedom to work out my ideas. I just had to incorporate the type as well as some sort of croquet reference. These posters are going to be printed rather large...around 40" tall. I had a lot of fun working on this...I think I'm going to get a bunch of these posters that I will put up somewhere on my site. Many thanks to the type whiz (art director?!) who I owe my firstborn child to. This guy did a poster for the benefit as well.

Damn...
That's freaking cool.
I've always loved that tentacled head person that seems to show up in other illustrations.
Mind if I take a stab at my own version of the tentacled head person?

Oskar,
apparently octopus are a big trend in illustration. I was about to point that out in this post. Along with crystals and laser beams. I think I'm fairly guilty of drawing all of the above, at least once.
Josh, the poster looks amazing. So cool.
Nice one! Great colors as usual. Did you copy/paste the hands to facilitate the pattern effect?
Hey, Josh! My name is Claudia, I'm Brazilian living in NYC, and by accident (there is accidents) I find out about your work, and I have to say that is amazing beautiful!!! THANKS FOR DOING THAT! I LOOOOOVEEE IT! Clau

I love your colors so much ... and the guy with the octopus head :)
Thanks for all the comments!
Dominic- I copied and pasted 1 figure, check out the sketch posted above and sort of drew my characters around the same body frame.
Jon - really? is it the beard or the forlorn look in his eyes?
Benoit - I thought you weren't going to start blogging?
Awesome. This is Dope!
josh, this is really cool - i so love patterns too, kind of obsessed with really
amazing textile designs sometimes.
your color palette and shapes and lines (loose yet confident)
always amaze me.
