I love to draw, paint and of course create vector art for advertising, fashion and editorial print work. I also do a lot of public speaking and training, and am available for seminars or onsite training in Illustrator and Photoshop.

thanks. I'm glad you like the image. Realism is just one style... Illustrator the application is a tool and is as versitile as the artist that uses it. I hope that you choose a style based on the artist inside. A style you can feel comfortable and that satisfies your creative needs and desires : )

Ewww, it's so real. ^_^ That's was the scene in my house this morning when my infant nephew woke up with the sniffles. I'm making sure my sister sees this.

I'll have to look for it on a cd. I did that four years ago when I worked at Adobe Systems. So I'll have to look for the AI file in my archive disks....
