ANDY WARD, ACROSS THE BOARD
We are delighted to share the energetic work of Andy Ward, a
unique talent from our group who is in demand in virtually every market. Andy’s delicious palette, charming portraits,
and ability to inject concepts with enormous humor make his illustrations stand
out on the page of any publication. When it comes to branding and advertising
assignments, he brings in a blend of originality, style, and an acute adeptness
for character design. Andy's artwork has appeared on the surfaces of airplanes and
buses, iPhone apps, billboards, apparel, restaurant menus, store fronts, and the
list goes on. He also writes, directs,
and illustrates for his motion work, then teams up with animators to bring
the stills to life. Below are some examples of Andy’s illustrations
and animations. Enjoy!

JOHN S. DYKES HITS IT OUT OF THE BALLPARK!
In March 2011, John S. Dykes was assigned to illustrate a book of poems called F is for Fenway, a tribute to the nation's oldest major league ballpark, home to the Boston Red Sox, as it reaches its 100 year anniversary. For inspiration, John used the book's poems, reference from the library, magazine clippings, and photographs he'd taken of the baseball park. Using his own unique style, a mix of pencil & ink on paper, then coloring digitally, John captures the essence of Fenway Park in the heat of a Red Sox game. Once John's finals were in, the book quickly went to print in the United States so that it could be on shelves before opening day in April.
