Category: Traditional Art (Illustration / Painting)
Description: I have had 25 years experience in art, illustration and design, working successfully with many authors, publishers, architects, property developers, marketing agencies and others.

I mainly illustrate in freehand using Pantone ink, pencil, oil and watercolor. I use striking colors conveying that human quality that children and adults alike enjoy, stirring their imaginations.

I do believe that my ability to perceive the essence of what is required, and to translate that into illustration and art, which exactly communicates the clients’ ideas into a visual form is an advantage in the service I deliver.

Author, Marina Cohen (www.marinacohen.com) says; " I have worked with Mr. Howarth, via my publisher, over the past year for the covers of my two novels, I found him not only to be extremely talented and professional, but also extremely patient- working with me through several sketches before finalizing the cover art. I often tell students in my presentations that Mr. Howarth’s depictions of the characters and plot elements are far better than my own descriptions. I highly recommend him as an illustrator."

In response to some illustrations I recently did, the author (Peggy Guillory) said;  It has been a great pleasure working with you. I appreciate your time, quick response, and dedication to getting my illustrations done promptly, accurately, and professionally. Now I know why all of the references that you e-mailed me were so excited about your work.”

In viewing my portfolio one can see that I am versatile and work in different genres of art and illustration. I also work fast without losing quality, always making sure that the required deadlines are met. I am also easy to work with and understand that the customer wants his illustrations to be “just right”.  

Being a graduate with a degree in architecture and having worked in the field of construction, I feel that I have a good grasp of how a building should look when rendered and best exhibit its aesthetics and practicalities. Also as a practicing artist I prefer freehand illustration as I feel they exude life and have an additional charm about them which adds to their desirability. The value of the final product to the client is understood by them and demonstrated by the fact that they use me consistently for their ongoing building development projects.
