Wes Rowell

Since 1998, I have worked as an illustrator, graphic designer, art director, marketing director, and small business owner. I have created illustrations for editorial, informational, advertising, packaging, and retail applications. I have experience creating images for many fields: technology, oil & gas, collegiate sports, real estate, and education, to name a few.
I use Adobe Illustrator to create vector images.
My work is influenced by Carravaggio, Michael Straub, and Gary Larson.
I am currently (12/2/2022) the editorial cartoonist for the Durango Herald, in Durango, Colorado.
