Toby Willsmer – Designer

As an seasoned freelance cover artist and illustrator working from New Zealand. My published work highlights my signature energetic style and my love of comic book art. By using dynamic compositions and striking colours, I'm able to traverse a wide range of genres from horror, sci-fi and fantasy, to action & adventure.

I believe in a free flowing process where we can both be on the same page at all times. I'm happy to provide art direction where needed and by working together to capture the raw elements that provoke the emotional response. We can create a focused illustration to enable that response in our audience.

Having a full understanding of your goals, budget, resources, and deadline helps me to provide an accurate estimate. As a rule, a larger budget and longer deadline allows for greater concept flexibility, while a more conservative budget and shorter deadlines limit concept and complexity.

A great illustration comes from understanding the core in the chaos and pulling it out, to draw you in.
