"Good illustrations are hardly ever flashy; they're designed for long term use and attraction. They should be evocative and pleasing, but also detailed and supportive of the text/action or background. Good illustration serves to develop a strong, long term bond of affection with a product". My website will give you a good background into the history of myself and my artwork. While I have been working as an illustrator for many years now, most of the artwork showcased in "The Gallery" was created within the last five years and has, in most cases, been published.  Below is a short listing of some of the types of illustration work I have been commissioned to create in the recent past: Full Color Medieval Style Illustration Full Color and Black Ink Map (cartography) Illustration for print Black Ink Medieval Style Prints/Woodcuts Illustrations Rendered in Pen & Inks with Dyes Cover Illustration: Pen & Ink to Full Color Paintings Book/Magazine Interior Illustration: Pen & Ink to Full Color Paintings Computer Rendered/Enhanced Illustration Cartoon Illustration (for various print mediums) Eric Hotz © 1996 - 2009
