Jonathan illustrated ten (10) different characters for the festival that were used on posters, outdoor banners, promotional materials and set decorations.

The Lawn Whisperer can actually talk to your lawn, plants and garden, and tell you if you’re watering too much and how to change your water use habits. The Lawn Whisperer grabbed homeowners’ attention and helped curtail water-wasting habits in a funny and memorable way in the DFW Metroplex.

Logo for a new music product called DrumKubes. The Kubes are made to easily insert into the bass drum of a drum kit and provided the needed sound dampening in concert and recording situations. The DrumKubes come in many colors, thus the logo can be produced in different color configurations.
For those times you can't get the sunset photo you want, or when you wish you had a car on a beach, or a light beam shining on a certain spot, high-end compositing can be a life saver. All of these images are composites and show how a photo can be taken from good to great.

My personal project about fairies in a modern day home. This is composite photography taken to a whole new level with macro shots combined with full-sized models, props and lighting. Just imagine what can be done.

Developed a revised brand for Blackmon Mooring, a disaster relief and home services company, including new logo, graphic standards, fleet design, marketing material templates, etc. Blackmon Mooring saw this almost completely through to the end (around nine months' worth of work), then dropped the rebranding due to potential merger/acquisition talks. To say we were a little bummed is being kind. But hey, the work is worth showing.
Educational posters to be used in secondary schools to inspire students to study math.
A small sampling of brochures created over the years. Everything from annual reports to point-of-purchase to real estate.

I've been able to do a few book covers in my career and these are a few of my favorites. For Green Light Bridge, I drove over 300 miles in Texas searching for just the right bridge to photograph. And for Spare Me, I created an image that perfectly illustrated the criminal mob story set in the world of a bowling.
A few ads for the travel industry. Some for the business traveler and some for the leisurely side of the business.
