Generative AI Illustration
The latest content creation method relies on the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) generative pre-trained transformers (GPT) to quickly and efficiently produce high-quality custom content. The following examples were produced with Chat GPT-4 and DALL-E through descriptive prompt engineering.
Man Looking Up
Man Forward Face Shot
The examples below were all created to reflect a basic illustrative style. Prompts were engineered for each illustration to achieve the desired result. The final content was provided to the client for insertion into a presentation on evolving customer support in the new home industry. The visuals represent current state, service benchmarks, and future organizational goals.

Instructional Imagery
Clear illustrative examples to enhance written instruction can be just as important as thoughtfully designed products and services. In some cases, this information is what stands between product success, costly customer support calls, or worse - significant user frustration and product returns.
SIM Card Removal Illustration
Created in Adobe Illustrator.
This illustration was created to provide clarity, visually reinforce process, and eliminate user frustation around cumbersome SIM card removal from certain dedicated mobile hotspots. The illustration was included on printed collateral adjacent to user friendly instructions and was provided with specific certified like new replacement Jetpacks. Prior to production use, the collateral sheet was tested for clarity and representation accuracy.
3D Illustration
Improving overall effieciency, flexibility, and quality of output has always been professionally important to me. This is what initially drove me early in my career to teach myself the art and science of creating high-end, 3D Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) and visual effects. The examples below were all modeled and rendered in Maya. Texture maps were hand drawn in Photoshop and combined with material shaders.

Early 3D Illustration
These imagers are samples of my first venture into 3D content creation using Strata 3D. A Daystar quad-processor Mac-clone workstation was pushed to the limits to create the models and final rendered images. The notable aspect of this work was creation time was reduced by 60% and flexibility increased infinitely as imagery could be could be rendered from any angle stakeholders could imagine.

2D Photoshop Renderings
The following examples date back to when technical illustration was digitally hand-rendered in 2D drawing and painting programs. Each illustration took nearly a week to complete. This timeframe and workflow surfaced an opportunity to learn cutting-edge 3D graphics, where build once and quickly render imagery supported "Better, Faster, Cheaper" initiatives. The imagery below was all hand drawn in Adobe Photoshop.
