Illustrated anthropomorphic brand hero for Liverpool based design agency Smiling Wolf. They provide a broad range of services across a wide client base through a wholistic approach that focusses on the engagement and experiences of end users.

One of the most interesting aspects about my job, is seeing what other people do with my drawings. Sometimes an illustration answers a brief and that's fine. But collaborating with other creatives - in this case a design agency with a contemporary style - often lends a whole new lease of life to a job. I love the sharp, modern edge that Smiling Wolf bring to their new wolf. Different to my style, yet complimentary and striking at the same time.

The traditional engraving style swift wearing a burglar’s mask was developed for use on packaging and was Art Directed and Commissioned by dStudio.
Hand illustrated black and white drawing of the Personification of the Three Bottle Man for The Marriott Hotel Bar in Sydney. The drawing was then overlaid on a hand painted colour background to create the finished artwork. The full render was then superimposed over the face area to create the infinity man illusion.
In collaboration with packaging design agencies I've produced artwork for wine labels including these anthropomorphic characters for 'The Watering Hole' - a South African red.

Elsewhere an early commission saw me illustrating a Koala bear for an Australian Shiraz.
I was also asked to create three variations of a Victorian gentleman (Caberet Frank) with a super talented moustache that has a mind of its own.
