Spring Promo - Jenn


Here's my spring promo piece. A bear and a skunk awakened from their winter nap. I bet that cave could use an air freshener right now.

Spring Promo

For my Spring promo I decided to do giraffes, and a mother giraffe and baby giraffe since it's springtime. I realized that I've illustrated lots of everyday animals, such as cats and dogs, but my portfolios could use some more variety.

I love drawing animals. Even when they're realistic animals (as opposed to animal characters) I like to add a friendly expression to their faces. Here's a detail:

Spring promo


Here's my illustration for our spring mailer. I did a lot of sketches before I found something I liked for this. I even made a few different finals before I ended up with this one that I really like.

Easter (Paula)



This was my contribution to our spring '09 promo. It's a reworking of a piece I did about two years ago. I always liked how this illustration turned out so I opted to use it on our promo this time around.

The complete version can be seen here, on my blog.

Happy Easter!
