Harley Davidson Dark Custom Dragon

Last December I was contacted by Carmichael Lynch to be 1 of 7 illustrators contributing toward a custom promotional booklet announcing the launch of the Harley Davidson Dark Custom Motorcycle. The art producer on the project, Andrea Mariash, has recently posted the job to her weblog, and I thought it would be a great time to show the drawings. It was an interesting assignment, a new one for me. I was asked to act as a biker, out on the road, doodling (with ballpoint pen) in his little black book. It was interesting to be asked to do what I would do if I was someone else. The first illustration is the road snaking into a dragon or serpent, and the second, a night on the town with the Dark Custom. Anyway, I’m happy with the illustrations,and I’d love to hear what you think.

ICON5 in NYC

ICON5

Last night I participated in the ICON5 Roadshow at the beautiful Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan. As this was my first time attending, I didn’t know what to expect, but I was really pleased with both the venue and turnout. The entire 3 hours were filled with eager art buyers and art directors perusing and really taking their time to view the artists’ work. In some way it reaffirmed my belief in the industry. I saw an overall buzz and excitement for the work and a real commitment from the industry to move our cause forward in a proactive and positive way. So on this July 4th, all I can say is yeah for illustration! I hope you all have a chance to attend the conference.
