These had to be churned out pretty quickly, but I still wanted to make each of the images in the sections of the pyramid—stock images just wouldn’t have looked as good.

This one was a pleasure, and the pig/cow power-couple on the bottom take it home. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/57532db3d51cd45f35f1e5db/5cf979a8cdfbbf00012799e6/1572382494032/OURVISION.jpg Design - 2012 - 2019 - Palindromes Inc.

No one wants to spend their night in a go-between room.

He is as badass as this suggests. After WWII, he worked as a naval interceptor and code-breaker. He learned Russian in an eight-month crash course, despite already speaking around four languages prior. He then listened in on radio comm’s between Russian ships. Because the Russians knew they were being spied upon, they switched up their codenames regularly. It was my grandfather’s job to learn and keep note of the changing callsigns and their corresponding captains by recognizing their voices. He also ran a few marathons and set up a tannery in Macau.

King likens the Overlook Hotel to a wasp’s nest, each room a cell in which something evil festers and feeds on anyone unfortunate enough to become food for the ghostly larvae. Even more disturbing, the face hidden in this nest is a call to one of the final scenes in the novel, in which Jack Torrence bashes in his own face with a croquet mallet in front of his son, Danny. His ruined face becomes a shifting, bloody mask of each of the souls claimed by the hotel as it uses Jack as its mouthpiece. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/5db8bbe6201ee95799cafb67/5db8c5e9ae69931bf8d39a80/1572390387522/Screen+Shot+2019-10-29+at+7.00.25+PM.png Illustration https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/5db8bbe6201ee95799cafb67/5db8bc0dae69931bf8d2d3a8/1572387864264/SureSourceFooter.png Illustration https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/5db8bbe6201ee95799cafb67/5db8bbf63799b8041e8dd3fd/1572403690452/gudfireflywhole.jpg Illustration Firefly from a Güd social media spot.

He is as badass as this suggests. After WWII, he worked as a naval interceptor and code-breaker. He learned Russian in an eight-month crash course, despite already speaking around four languages prior. He then listened in on radio comm’s between Russian ships. Because the Russians knew they were being spied upon, they switched up their codenames regularly. It was my grandfather’s job to learn and keep note of the changing callsigns and their corresponding captains by recognizing their voices. He also ran a few marathons and set up a tannery in Macau. Badass. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/5db8bbe6201ee95799cafb67/5db8bfc13799b8041e8e1d5d/1572403670839/Salmon+and+Bear.jpg Illustration Created in 2011 for part of a concentration of other “role-reversal” themed artworks. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/5db8bbe6201ee95799cafb67/5db8c5d8142fba69a229f8bb/1572403743917/Screen+Shot+2019-10-29+at+6.56.52+PM.png Illustration A fun test panel for another graphic novel idea. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/5db8bbe6201ee95799cafb67/5db8c5f65b4dbb235819b01c/1572403630259/Screen+Shot+2019-10-29+at+7.01.51+PM.png Illustration A sketch of a character that was going to be a part of a graphic novel themed after a rapper—project never saw the light of day. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/5db8bbe6201ee95799cafb67/5db8c5e2dc253e6bed7e9698/1596063064657/Screen+Shot+2019-10-29+at+6.58.35+PM.png Illustration http://mathias-marchington.com/illustration-for-animation daily 0.75 2020-07-30 http://mathias-marchington.com/home daily 1.0 2021-07-12 http://mathias-marchington.com/resume daily 0.75 2020-02-05 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5749c3517da24ffddd0737c1/t/5e3b13141708cc372809e452/1580929820504/Resume_2019_Design.jpg Resume
