When you’re commissioned to produce an illustration, follow Mark Verhaagen’s advice on approaching the project I’ve created a variety of illustrations for commissions, as well as personal work. The first project here, Picnic, was an assignment based on personal work that combined Illustrator and Photoshop, and was created for the Picnic multimedia festival in Amsterdam. One of the key speakers was David Silverman, best known for directing numerous episodes of The Simpsons TV series.
