Cartoon Cow Book Illustrations
A selection of illustrations featuring a cartoon cow character from a recent book illustration project. Believe it or not, the book is a retirement planning book.

Classroom Antics Robot Mascot Character
This robot cartoon character mascot was created for children’s tech workshop Classroom Antics. The client was looking for a way to add some personality to their promotional materials and overall company branding.
The robot was one of three concepts for the character, including a kid superhero and a monster character, but after some initial rough sketches we all agreed a robot was the way to go.
VW Baja Team Wolf Mascot
These cartoon wolf mascot character sketches were created for an automotive industry marketing firm who was working on the branding for the Volkswagen Baja 500 “Desert Wolves” team.
The project ended up not being taken to final, but I thought I would share the process sketches here.
Surfer Girl Logo
This cartoon logo was created for a pet sitting company in Hawaii, and the client wanted a surfer girl riding a wave, as well as some pets joining her on the surfboard.
