Art GeneralProcess in Action: Differing Steps for Different Projects
Most of the work that I do falls into these categories: editorial, advertising, books, logos, and miscellaneous (which includes hard-to-categorize printed and non-printed projects, including some of my type design work). Through case studies, youâll see how my process shifts depending on the category of work and who the work is for. Weâve gotten over the hump of technical talk; on to the pretty pictures!
Creating artwork for magazines and newspapers is very fun, and because the timelines are generally pretty tight, you can create a large portfolio of work very quickly. Early in my career, people who stumbled upon my portfolio were shocked at the amount of work Iâd created in such a short period of time, and I was able to amass such a big body of work because of all the editorial projects Iâd been working on. If I look at my calendar from that time, itâs packed with editorial work. Iâd be working on up to twelve or fifteen jobs simultaneously, which in retrospect seems crazy. What made it possible to work on so many projects at once was the inflexibility of editorial deadlinesâa magazine or newspaper went to press on a certain date, and my artwork had to be delivered by that time. I could piece together my calendar like a complicated puzzle, everything staying neatly in place, jobs hardly ever requiring many rounds of revision or pushing past their original deadlines.
One of the most fun things about editorial work is that you get to read endless fascinating articles and brainstorm about what concepts would best articulate the ideas expressed in them. I particularly love illustrating for science magazines because of all the random things I get to learn about. As an editorial illustrator, you have more freedom to experiment than you often do on other client projects because what youâre creating isnât a part of a big expensive campaign. It isnât going to be used by the client on everything they make for all eternityâit exists in just one issue, on one page, as a part of one article of one publication. I donât do as many editorial jobs now as I used to, but I still love to take them on here and there as palate cleansers.
