PENCIL ILLUSTRATIONS FOR BOOK COVER AND CHAPTERS
I had the experience of working with Brian on illustrations for a book of poems that IÂ’'d written. Brian did the artwork for each of my chapters, my book cover, as well as my layout. Brian does phenomenal work. For each chapter drawing, I was able to merely provide a concept, a notion that I had in mind and Brian would make it a reality. He is also great at helping you develop concepts if you are not quite sure what you want. In fact, he worked diligently with me to create the idea for the cover of my book. Working with Brian, was a rewarding experience. He helped to bring my brainchild to life. Brian is flexible, very professional, easy to work with and delivers an exceptional product.

CHILDREN'S THEATER - ART NEEDED FOR ADVERTISING PLAYS
I was working on a rather tight deadline and am happy to say that even before the work started, Brian was very quick to respond to all communications and incredibly attentive to my needs. In fact, he finished the illustration a week before my deadline! I gave him an overview via email of what I was thinking the illustration needed to incorporate and then Brian followed up with a phone call just to be sure he completely understood my needs. This was very impressive and professional. Brian then created four different sketches of the illustration that I was able to look at and assess. I loved this because it gave me many options and angles. I ended up liking different elements in all 4 of the sketches and Brian used this feedback to combine the elements into one piece. Overall, Brian was wonderful to work with. He took my feedback with no hesitation and came back to me with exactly what I and my company wanted. I would recommend Brian to anyone looking for an illustrator.

BOOK COVER RESCUE
I was urgently in need of someone to help me finalize the cover for my book, "TROUBLE." I was in fact having trouble dealing with other designers. The work was 98% complete, with only a few minor adjustments and corrections needed. Brian, not knowing the scope of the work, contacted me and asked of my specific needs. Upon learning that it wasn't a big, start-to-finish job, his willingness to help didn't change like that of others I had briefly spoken with. Brian was just as helpful. After learning my needs, and receiving my files, his proficiency enabled him to immediately make both the corrections and the adjustments needed. In a relatively short period of time, Brian provided me with everything I needed (and more) to submit my book cover to the printer. I look forward to working with him again. He is knowledgeable, helpful, genuinely interested in the project being well done, and Brian is a pleasure to work with. My only regret is that I didnÂ’'t find him sooner.

BOOK COVER DESIGN
Brian is a very intelligent and personable host. He holds knowledge in a wide variety of areas of photography, digitization, applications, and he works with the latest technologies. Among other things, his ideas are future oriented and he is sensitive to the needs of people's agenda as far as what they need. I needed two book covers and some help with the books presentation publication ideas. Brian did a tremendous job in all respect to my satisfaction. I would hire Brian again to do my next book's illustrations/imaging and other pre-printing or digitizing needs.
