Sometimes it seems like every illustration assignment is a special project. Since I don't promote a "look" and willingly take on interesting projects regardless of what they may be, I have compiled quite an eclectic portfolio over the years. Here are a few, a very few samples, of some of these special projects. Before I became totally independent, I worked for many years as graphic support for the military industrial complex, specifically Navy fighter training. To this day I can still draw a pretty good F-14 from memory. With the downsizing of DoD, we unemployed artists had to adapt to new industries in need of artistic talent. Fortunately, computer games came into vogue and sucked up most the artistic talent which previously supported Defense. The transition isn't that tough ... F-16s to Ninjas. Some of us became freelancers; making a living one client at a time. Samples below include: an animation background concept; an apparel patch design; a Navy air squadron painting commission; info graphic for city government brochure; set design proposal for xtreme sports event; presentation art for marketing firm; and a music CD label painting. Let me know what special project you have for me. GregHigh@aol.com
