Cedric H.
Illustrator. Concept Artist. Cartoonist. Art that makes people smile.
I own an illustration studio where I specialize in humorous illustration, toy design, and cartooning. I've worked on hundreds of projects both as an artist and as a project manager supervising other artists. I've designed toys for Hasbro and Disney; illustrated cereal boxes for General Mills; created advertising comps for Coca-Cola, Target and Best Buy; illustrated stories for Scholastic and Highlights Magazine; illustrated packaging for McDonald's, Hasbro, and Crayola; helped design kids’ meal toys for Chick-Fil-A; and designed costumes and props for VeggieTales. I've worked hard to build a reputation for being professional, reliable, and easy to work with. I understands the importance of meeting tight deadlines. My clients tell me I'm a good listener, that I go the extra mile, and I bring fresh ideas to the table. I work 100% digitally in order to be as fast and flexible as possible. I'm the creator of the Pose Drawing Sparkbook, a tool for helping artists add more life and personality to their drawings. For three years I wrote and drew the webcomic Sketchbook Silliness. A few of my comics went viral and were featured on the home pages of Reddit, Imgur, and Bored Panda. I successfully Kickstarted a book of cartoons, 'Mostly Nonsense'. In 2013 I won a Pewter Plate Award as illustrator of the month from "Highlights!" magazine, and was a finalist for the National Cartoonists Society division award for Advertising Illustration.
