Title: David A. Smith - Amazing Illustrator, who also does stock!
Post by: davidgoh on March 03, 2013, 08:51

Hey MSG illustrators, just wanted to share something I came across today:

(http://www.underthegunreview.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/John-Mayer-Born-and-Raised-800x800.jpeg)

As a vector artist, I was blown away by this gorgeous piece of work. It's the album art for John Mayer's "Born & Raised" album. The amazing artist goes by the name of David A. Smith, and there's a short film detailing his process - one that is an absolute delight to watch:

Through a little searching, I also found out that he does stock vectors! http://www.istockphoto.com/ANGELGILD/ (http://www.istockphoto.com/ANGELGILD/) Superb work. :D

What an amazing project - I love this guy's work and also that there is enough of a market for hand-crafted products to keep him in business.  Thanks so much for posting
