With a background in art history and graphic design, Jessica Allen is inspired by things that tell stories: natural history, vintage treasures, and hand lettering, to name a few. These influences are seen in her work, which displays fine details and saturated colors in a painterly style. Her clients include magazines, books, and children's products. Jessica lives in Rhode Island with her husband, two children, and a scrappy dog.
Clairice Gifford loves designing, new ideas, and is inspired by anything creative. Besides art, she enjoys good food, books, interesting podcasts, and traveling whenever she gets the chance.
Flora Waycott is a freelance illustrator from the South of England, currently living and working in Sydney, Australia. Her work incorporates elements of nature, sweet characters, and everyday objects, with a playful yet sophisticated style influenced by a childhood spent in Japan. Much of her inspiration is drawn from what surrounds her daily, but she is also a keen traveler and loves to find new ideas from seeking adventure in faraway places.
Heather Holbrook has always been irresistibly drawn to the glamour of theatre and art but preferred to work behind the scenes designing the costumes and painting backdrops. After all those drawings of lovely ladies in lavish gowns, she decided to go to Sheridan College in Brampton to study illustration. After her second year, she moved to Toronto to study at Ontario College of Art & Design where she added advertising, graphic design, and fashion illustration to her repertoire.
She worked in advertising for a number of years from production artist and studio manager to art director before striking out on her own as a professional illustrator, which she has been for more than 19 years. Heather is also a busy graphic designer these days who never stops taking courses.
Her work has been described as distinctively elegant and whimsical and has appeared in a wide range of publications and print media world wide.
Captivated by books since she was a little girl, Marina Seoane Pascual studied fine arts and worked as an illustrator for thirty-five years collaborating with more than twenty-five Spanish and foreign publishing houses, illustrating more than 250 books and writing five stories.
Her illustrations are hand-drawn and then digitally finished using textures that she scans in her studio. Materials include fabric, pieces of metal, stones, shells, wood, and more.
Patrick Stefanski is a 3D artist living in Jersey City, New Jersey. All the work in his Workbook portfolio was created using 3D Studio Max w/ VRay. He works quickly, utilizing custom scripts and program mods to maximize efficiency when used in conjunction with a photo-composite/editing software.
The majority of his work is photorealistic, but lately Patrick has been working both professionally and privately to add more stylized/illustrator-ly pieces to his repertoire.
He truly feels he can create anything and always welcomes a challenge!
