Taylor's method of working combines traditional and digital skills to enhance the product of his illustration. We would advise other illustrators to produce this type of methods in their designs.

Taylor can be designing anything from stylised pieces to realistic pieces, where he can include the required design in a small thumbnail to large, full page. This is a very good technique to creating a design piece.

Taylors unique approach of producing illustrations allows for art direction and timely turnarounds. This makes Taylor very unique to other illustrators.

Within his abilities to produce design pieces, without boundaries, Taylor creates artwork from inspiration of a select subject and works with it. In particular, his mixed media piece Fallen Angel is dedicated to the late Nick Adenhart, who played for the Los Angeles Angels Baseball Team. This illustration is well presented, just highlighting the foreground action.

Another piece of artwork is Owens, which shows an illustration of the American football player Terrell Owens. Taylor has captioned this Who will be the next to pick up Terrell Owens and risk his seemingly toxic baggage?. This illustration corresponds with the caption to highlight the football carer of Owens from Taylor's view.

He has worked with clients, such as; The LA Times, The Washington Post, The Progressive, Billboard Magazine & More... These big name companies have helped Taylor become recognised in the design industry. Taylor is still improving his current online portfolio, with his view on illustrated and mix media designs. Follow him and see what new and refreshing piece of artwork he will set free to the world soon.

Taylor has a sweet mix of digital and traditional art, which is now the case for many aspiring artists today. Although more students are using digital methods to produce fantastic results. If you interested in this style of work and would like to pursue a career in illustration, search for courses at you local college or university. Visual Communication, art and design, graphic design and illustration courses are all available to steer you in the right direction. If you are wondering which programmes are used to produce these results, look up Adobe for a list of popular titles such as Photoshop, Illustrator and Corel for Painter.
