Here's an illustration I did recently for Disney's Family Fun magazine. It's about a boy who needed to start thinking more positively...I'm not sure that the spot illustration (of the flower and bee) had anything to do with the article.

I recently finished up a book of illustrations for Catalone Design that walks you through their Design process. I've posted more pics here (check out the embossed chipboard cover!): Mike Lowery illustration for Catalone Design.

Not only that, but they used all of my drawings in a nice little video.

Photographer and friend of the Academy, William Haun, just got back from Haiti where he was helping out. I loved this one he sent of a hand-painted ad for ice cream. Check out his photo sets here.

These have been out for a little while now, but I've been waiting for some good promo shots before I posted them. This is the first set in a series of books called "Two Little Libros" from Bilingual Readers (Madrid, Spain). They were great to work with and I'm extremely happy with the books. The second set is ALREADY COMPLETED and will be out in a month or so.

Thanks to william haun for the promo photos!

I recently did a self portrait for a few of the publishers I'm working for who wanted a photo. Below is the finished drawing, as well as the original. See if you can find the tiny change I made that made me look a bit friendlier.

This weekend at SCAD (where I teach illustration), we are hosting Jon Foster and fellow Lilla Rogers Studio artist Helen Dardik (who happens to be a pattern making genius!). It's mostly open to students, but if you're in the Atlanta area and would like to come, send me a quick note.
