I love illustration. Although illustration possesses few secure signposts pointing the way to success, it offers enormous freedom – of medium, style, and content. And on a societal level, illustrators are expected to be the seers of contemporary culture. They pick at the many threads making up our various cultures – political, social, economic, artistic, etc., – and weave them into challenging images that are both read and responded to. Illustrators have the freedom to simultaneously consume and create, and their work does exactly the same. It is a profession that draws from and adds to our cultures, with the potential to effect immense change.

Ray Harris

by Ray Harris on 02/03/2015 in SILA Member Artists

Every project challenges us for new solutions; I seek creative outcomes with team members that are willing to trust me with my part as an illustrator. After graduating from Art Center College Of Design, I worked in the film industry for over forty years. I love my work and hope you do too!

Ralph Villalobos

by Ralph Villalobos on 11/09/2015 in SILA Member Artists

My work is inked based focusing mainly on themes of tragedy, comedy, and pop culture. My process begins with thumbnails sketches that evolve into blue line illustrations I then ink using Microns, quill pens and brushes as well. I am heavily influenced by traditional illustrations, comic book art, music, hot rods, cartoons, films, tattoos and growing up a poor Chicano in Lennox CA. I am happy to work on any creative projects. Please contact me with any inquiries.

Hilary Clarcq

by Hilary Clarcq on 10/30/2017 in SILA Member Artists

After earning a BA in English and Fine Art, Hilary spent many years as a graphic designer before turning to illustration as a way to combine design-thinking with her love of drawing. Her design background is evident in her illustration work, where she employs graphic elements alongside more realistic rendering.

When not drawing or painting, you can find her outdoors or discovering new places. Her favorite means of exploration are bikes, surfboards, and the printed word.
