It’s hard to believe that it’s been 20 years ago today that I started being represented by Those 3 Reps agency in Dallas ,Texas! It’s been a wonderful journey creating all the amazing illustrations and fun projects throughout my career with SO many different clients and creative professionals along the way! From the very beginning, it was a joy to start with Carol Considine, Debbie Bozeman, and Sheila Mullin to embark on the best creative adventure an artist can have! I’m so honored to continue to be repped by Sheila and now Courtney Williams as they keep growing their agency into such a dynamic and diverse team of talented artists. I am so thrilled to still be a part of their awesome group of artists! My first assignment in 2001 was creating these hip, fashionable urban people for Hotel Derek when they opened in Houston, Tx. The illustrations were used in combination with photographs for a promotional campaign that included print magazine ads, newspapers, and online on the cusp of social media and smart phones. This was when Facebook and Twitter were brand new and way before Instagram or other platforms even existed!
