Beyond the case studies

A passion for illustration

I started out in fine art, drawing in graphite, and I still bring illustration into my work when a project calls for it. Here are two personal series and an illustration of the awards I won at Legrand.

Personal series

Celebrity portraits

A passion project of four actors, each drawn as the role they were best known for at the time.

Illustration of four Legrand Pursuit of Excellence awards from 2016, 2017 and 2018, including a fully assembled Summit Award

Legrand

Pursuit of Excellence awards

Legrand’s Pursuit of Excellence program recognizes standout work in levels. A wooden cube marks a company-wide accomplishment, a metal casing goes to work that mattered even more, and the orange Summit Award insert completes the trophy for the most instrumental projects.

I illustrated the four I won, one each from 2016 and 2017 and two from 2018. The 2017 project earned all three levels.
