Gawker Artist Ian Marsden fez man

I just received a very cool e-mail. My art is now being featured on Gawker.com as one of the ‘gawker artists’.

Marlowe to promote Ian

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

I am just completing all the elements for the new V6.0 marsdencartoons.com website. I decided to ask my buddy Marlowe over to give me a hand with the navigation. He was drawn in Adobe Illustrator and will be appearing in a brief flash animation in the site navigation. He’s going to move his eyes a little bit and sniff his fish.

Why, you ask?
I don’t know, frankly!

:)

Marlowe smells a rat…well a fish in any event

Another postcard

Ian D. Marsden - stock art now on www.fotofinder.com

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

A selection of Ian D. Marsden cartoons and illustrations are now available as stock art at www.fotofinder.com - just type in the searchwords: Ian Marsden and you will have an ever growing selection to choose from. Of course as an illustrator it is always fun to be contacted directly and create a ’special’ custom made piece for the client, but sometimes it is also nice to have ready-made pieces available too.

Postcard Nr. 01

Saturday, July 14th, 2007

I love to draw and write nonsensical postcards whenever I have the chance (and time). I buy postcard format pads of Bristol or watercolor paper and simply draw whatever comes to mind - then a few words on the back, an address, a stamp and off they go.

The nice thing about the Rotring ArtPen ink, is that you can go over it with a paintbrush and water and give it a fine wash.

For many years I did this without even scanning them, so only the people who received them (if they received them, that is) would even know they ever existed.
