I’m thrilled to have been selected for this beautiful publication by Lürzers’ Archive!
This is what they say on their website :”There were no fewer than 6,075 submissions received for the 4th edition of 200 Best Illustrators Worldwide. Yet – as the name itself suggests – only 200 actually made it into the selection. In a volume numbering 326 pages, we present you with exceptional illustrations produced during the past two years from around the world. Incidentally, the cover of this new edition comes from India or, to be more precise, from Taproot India, Mumbai. The name of the illustrator who produced it is Anant Nanvare”
Just received my copy of the 3×3 illustration annual n0 7 in which two of my illustrations are honored. It’s a beautifuly published book featuring stunning artwork in many different styles. A must-have for anyone with the slightest interest in illustration.
Recently I made some artwork for this App for learning Kanji’s/Japanese. Pretty soon it reached the top position in the education section of the Japanese App Store!
Several illustrators worked on this app each responsible for a different pack making it a beautiful and fun way to learn reading, writing and memorising these Japanese characters. I did the ‘Object Pack’, so if you would like to learn more or install the App go here.
Recently I did this illustration for the poster and flyer for family friendly version of the Nutcracker as performed by the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra.In one of the sketches I couldn’t resist turning their logo, a yellow half orb into a cheese. Turned out they loved it. The Graphic Design is done by Stof Vormgeving.
I’m proud to announce that two of my illustrations recieved merits in the 3×3 annual competition.
3×3 is the first magazine devoted entirely to the art of contemporary illustration and the only one published in the United States. Twice a year we take an in-depth look at art and environment of three illustrators. We explore their influences. How they work with clients. How they got their first big break. Each article is written by a fellow illustrator who knows exactly what our audience wants to hear. From the U.S. to Europe, Asia, or wherever, we’ll stay tuned to what’s going on the world of illustration.
PROFESSIONAL SHOW NO. 7
The judges have voted and we’re pleased to announce the winners of this year’s ProShow. It’s our largest show ever. Not only were there more entries, there were more winners and more medalists. And half of our winners were from outside the US making 3×3′s ProShow truly international.
Getting a medal in our show is never easy but the quality of this year’s entries resulted in far more winners being named by the judges. Just to get in the show you must receive a majority of votes from our nine judges. To receive a medal you must receive at least eight judge’s votes and to receive the top awards you must receive all nine judge’s votes.
You’ll notice some very familiar names among our winners but also quite a few new faces made this year’s cut. And in looking over the show there were very few weak pieces among the non-winners—the work was at it’s highest level ever. Congratulations to all.
