Geek: IDG

Freshness Dating

Refurbished: Individual illustrations from the mid-1990s. Collage and background are new

Tech Talk

Vector art in pre-Wacom tablet Adobe Illustrator.

Content

Samples from my high-flying days as an illustrator for Computerworld magazine (one of my geekiest clients, under the International Data Group). Once again, real life prevented a newer posting. Hopefully the collage technique expresses a transformation of neurotic chicken-stratching into a high-tech career.

What the Heck is Illustration Friday?

Think of it as a voluntary, client-free playground for illustrators. A topic is posted every Friday morning. Participants from around the world create, post and share their interpretations.

No Client? Why Bother?

At this stage of my career, I need a weekly public exercise to draw anything at all.

Freshness Dating

Unless otherwise stated, my iFriday work is all-new, created soley for that week's theme. Other Freshness categories include:

Repurposed
Old art, lifted straight from the archives with no current modifications
Refurbished
Previously-viewed art, modified and enhanced for current times
Alt Theme
Past iFriday themes, presented when I have nothing for the current week's theme

Mission Statement

"It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not."
