I just did these two recession themed illustrations for two different magazines. Both stories are about avoiding personal recession. I decided to use similar colors and technique to make a little series on the theme. I used a little blurring to create feeling of movement.

First one is for ladies’ magazine Anna and second is for Asukas, magazine for customers of a housing company.

Dust from the archives, part 1

Car flow
Golfer & Skater
Gymstar
Line car
Car shapes
I was searching for a file in my digital archives of non published works (and loads of other things). I did not find that file but spent almost whole day browsing through my old projects, tests etc. I found some very nice stuff that I had already forgot. Here’s some of them. “Gymstar” is from 2001 and others from 2004. I think I did not have lots of jobs and were trying to create something new. I think I should have gone further with them.

Some of the pictures I found need some editing (they are mostly fh:s or psd:s) before I can post them.

Testing a new style

Oath Breaker
I would like to make more realistic illustrations and have recently tested a new style, I make a collage and paint it with photshop.

First picture is a cover for a book. Actually I’m still working on it, but I think it’s already good enough to show.

Here’s two more with same technique. These I made for Anna magazine (yes, I do a lots of stuff for other clients too and I’ll post them soonish):

Starting a year with a failure.

Home security v.1
I did this illustration about home security for Osaava Kodinrakentaja -magazine (~”Handy Home builder”) as a first job of year 2009. And I did it totally against their instructions and wishes. They told me that it’s a beautiful picture but do it again and obey the instructions and wishes.

Home security v.2
Here’s the result. I like it and so did they. Next time I’ll show the scetches before Photoshopping if I plan do something else than what was asked.
