Illustrations created for Turner Classic Movies

TCM Classic Film Festival 2025, Grand Illusions: Fantastic Worlds on Film, Hollywood

I had the incredible opportunity to illustrate for the 2025 TCM Classic Film Festival.

The brief was to build a cinematic, fantatsical world, through creating an illustrated map that highlighted many iconic films from the festivals lineup.

I also created a series of headline posters that reinterpreted key films from the festival, including Jaws, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Bringing Up Baby, Brigadoon, Splendor in the Grass, The Wiz, and more. These illustrations were used prominently on printed posters displayed throughout the festival in Hollywood.

The artwork extended into festival merchandise, with official items such as tote bags, mugs, stickers, sherpa blankets and pillows.
