Illustration of "Standard" office meeting rooms Freeman Decorating was promoting in their sales material
Illustration of a "Standard" 8 foot booth Freeman Decorating was promoting in their sales material
Illustration of an "Upgraded" information booth Freeman Decorating was promoting in their sales material. I was given full artistic license to come up with something "out of the box" but something we could accomplish with standard, off-the-shelf stock we had on-hand.
ALA/ATS Illustration of their entryway in Seattle. I also designed their registration counters and sign-up kiosks. I worked off of blueprints supplied from that convention center
stage set Illustration for Bard Medical Supply with lecterns. Bard wanted a futuristic looking set design as they were launching "advanced" new products to the market. I also had to provide a back stage where personnel and products could be staged, introduced and rolled out from - as well as a screen for rear projection application. I was given full license on design and execution. Freeman Decorating later used these lectern designs I created as an "upgraded" lectern option for rent to their clients.
as a note:
I illustrated this in 1994 and the application of "Futuristic" is not was it is now. This is almost a "time capsule" in a matter of speaking.
Photo-op Illustration for Disney event, Beauty and the Beast theme
Photo-op Illustration for Disney event, Beauty and the Beast theme
Photo-op Illustration for Disney event, Aladin's Adventure theme. They were looking for a "fun" atmosphere with a "cartoon-ish" looking backdrop, posh "metallic" looking pillows and velvet drapes.

I also illustrated the flying carpet replica in the movie, while at Freeman Decorating. This carpet was to measure 36 feet long by 22 feet high and was used in the Disney movie's "breakout party" as a backdrop behind the head table. I designed it on a desktop computer in aspect at a smaller, more manageable size. I segmented the image, then printed them in 8" x 10" sections. These sections were put on a projector where scenic artists worked on "cherry pickers" to draw and paint it on a seamed textile substrate on a wall we had specially erected in Freeman's warehouse. I took direction from and collaborated with the art director all throughout this project as a team effort.
