Sarah Beetson :: A Fresh Approach
Sarah Beetson has recently teamed up with fashion label 'Hannah' to work on these exciting illustrations.

Halo Mike
Moving boldly forward towards big bold illustration commissions is this strident new personal piece from Mike Thompson.
Entitled 'Halo Painting', this highly-contemporary illustration reflects Mike's obvious adoration of video games, whilst simultaneously acting as a showpiece for his mastery of digital art.
Vincent Vigla :: Say "Cheese!"
Big smiles all round now for Vincent Vigla's character 'Smiley' – developed for Oral-B's national 'Stop the Rot' campaign, which is aimed at encouraging children to brush their teeth more.
Vincent created 15 different poses for the Smiley campaign, each accompanied by the line 'Smile like a crocodile!', and a special Smiley typface was also created for the campaign
Gail Armstrong's A Paper Wonder
Gail Armstrong's unique paper art has found a happy home at Wausau Papers who are using three of her creations to promote their range of papers in their direct mail and poster campaigns.
Paul Wharton of Larsen Design commissioned Gail to design three animals: a dog, a giraffe and a horse – each representing a different aspect of the company. Wausau Papers evidently loved the work so much they have commissioned Gail to create their Christmas card this year.
Bill Greenhead's Mascot
"Meet Shooty. He's a likable boy, not too sweet or cute, he has an edge and is cheeky with it – he's a friend to all football stars".
He is Bill Greenhead's new mascot for Shoot. Shoot is a UK footcall website. The new mascot Shooty has his own page strip each month on the site, and gets to appear on every page.
Echo Chernik :: Flattered By Thefts
Good enough to steal – so it goes for Echo Chernik's poster work for Connecticut Opera's upcoming show 'Tosca'.
It seems the posters have gone down so well they are being stolen from the walls of restaurants, libraries, bookstores and drug stores. The story has even made TV news, while the Opera has had to order a second printing of the poster. This is Echo's third poster for the opera, and she is half-hoping the other two will be in similar demand!
