Award of Excellence, The RX Club

I recently took two awards of Excellence from the 2008 RX Club Awards. Both were for Saatchi & Saatchi Healthcare Innovations. The client was Wyeth and the drug, Torisel. The first award was for illustration and the second for animation. I have to mention Felix Design in PA for Penny and Danni's effort to make that happen on time.

Concept art

I have had an interest in concept art for vid and games lately. Aside from book arts and editorial, it may be the nostalgia for an era when illustration was king. Since the advent of the computer as a medium Editorial and Concept art seems to be the few that have been able to adapt and excel. A new technology and a new market. I hope you enjoy them.

On the Nose

New mixed media sketches by Anthony Morrow

I am sketching for a new season of exciting products and programs. Here are a few samples from my journal of late 08. If I can get my way, you might even see the sketches on some stationary. And if I can not get my way with the larger retailers you might see ME manufacture some new stationary this coming season. After all if you have not heard there is a new DIY generation of American Craftsman and Artisans emerging. (-;


ON ETSY

Limited Editions

I will be doing a run of 50 hand signed prints on archival museum quality acid free rag paper.
Since they are Screen printed by hand each has a slight uniqueness to it. I feel this adds to the charm and originality of each piece.
They will be available in mid September on my ETSY shop

Wearable Art, Lumpy Gravy

Recently I have been experimenting with my art on wearables.
This is not a new concept, I have had a tshirt line out for 4 or 5 years now.
What is different with this apparel is that I would like to consume the garment with color. I want the apparel to be layered and painted as if it was my canvass. I have dedicated about 8 months to researching techniques from ancient India all the way to todays dtg printing machines. There are so many options, it excites me to experiment and try new things. Nothing says your learning like failing. But within all the failure to create wearable art, I have learned so much. I truly feel blessed to do what it is I do everyday. To create.
The name of the new apparel Company is LUMPY GRAVY, lumpy-gravy.com
Coming in early September 08

Matador Apparel

I just finished creating two logos for a classic surfboard maker from the east coast.
the Lisiewski's have been shaping boards for about 50 years and recently were inducted into the surf hall of fame.
To answer a call to the new found love of this classic brand we created two logos. One to commemorate the old and one for the new.
I hope you like them.
You might be seeing them on lastwave.com soon.

ABC's Hit series Extreme Home Makeover

FANTASTIC. What a great time. I had the privilege of working on the art for the ABC Hit Extreme Home Makover last summer. It was the Camden episode for the Morera's. Not only was a great experience but a great cuase. The land was donated for the house by a charity I support and love, Urban Promise.
A win win. Here are some Behind the scene pics.

New Character Sheet for License

ArtRage

I had been hearing a name of an art program, "artrage" creep up a few times now in blogs and cg art forums I frequent and post to. Of course once I hear about it 2 or 3 times I HAVE to give it a try. It is a program comperable to painter but much thinner and for that reason speedy. The medium is very realistic and the controls are pretty intuative. Here is the first try. I was dl'd, installed and finished painting in 25 mins. There is a free mac or win trial version available. This tool will definitely be in my program quiver for the next project. I do have to say that the stencil tools are interesting but the interactive feature is a bit lacking on them.
