NEW WORK: Grandcamp Adventures – Treasure Maps
This is a water colour rendering for a client from earlier this Spring. I don’t find myself doing too much work in “real” mediums like water colour or oils anymore. Timelines and budgets have dictated other solutions.
Yet another in this series of Fox illustrations. In this episode, our Fox character returns to Japan to gather news from his old friend a retired shinto priest convalescing at his mountain meditation retreat.
Client: Mosiac Homes
Project: Architectural Rendering/Illustration of White Brick Homes, Point Grey, Vancouver
Scott Plumbe and illolab has won in the architectural illustration category of the 2010 Applied Arts Illustration Annual
This illo has been a long time coming. I sketched it ages ago and posted the b/w version of it on this blog. After several modifications it has finally been completed. It’s part of a series that started with this fox.
Set in Morocco’s most famous city Casablanca, this illustration introduces two new characters to the [...]
Here are a couple conceptual sketches commissioned by Vancouver’s Switch Interactive. A once neglected utility corridor in the Robson Conference centre was transformed into an vital and interactive experience promoting BC’s technology sector.
Although somewhat loose, the conceptual renderings were guided by strong art direction and the ended up being remarkably similar to the final installation.

Wow January has flown past. My first child Cole was born on January 1st and has been our primary focus. Needless to say I’ve fallen behind with my posts. So to make up for that I thought I’d share a “behind the scenes” quicktime slideshow of an oil painting from Autumn that I’ve been intending to [...]
Here’s a watercolour rendering of an elevation of a Georgian Rowhome for a the Vancouver based developer Mosaic Homes. This project will be selling later this year. Here’s a link to their website & blog. http://taylor.mosaichomes.com/
Here’s a detail of an entry.
This piece was just completed for a client who specializes in homes in the Georgian style. The homes are not yet build so great care was taken to authentically represent the artfully designed facade and carefully considered materials such as the transparent stained cedar shingle siding. www.tattonhouse.ca
This painting was completed in alkyd (fast drying) oil [...]
This illustrated elevation was completed for use in the marketing of a Rowhomes. The illo started its life as an architect’s line elevations and was redrawn with landscaping in place and completed in water colour.

The Missus and I flew down to Portland over the Labor Day weekend for a wee holiday. It was a wonderfully refreshing trip that now has us both energized to complete all ongoing jobs and tackle the upcoming Autumn projects.
The highlight? without hesitation was Powell’s Books. Holy cow, an entire city block, multiple floors of [...]
Well, its been a hectic couple of months. Lots of great work being done, but no sign of a Summer holiday here at illoLab! Yesterday evening I knew that I’d be working late again, so when I saw some curious light outside at dusk I decided to grab my camera and check it out. I [...]
This is a preview of another new piece of mine from the upcoming show Pencil on Paper at the Elliot Louis Gallery.
It is 8″ x 10″ and its titled: “Fox/Inari” and is based on a sculpture at the Fushimi Inari shrine in Kyoto. In fact all of the drawings I’m contributing to this show are [...]

This illo for a resort in the Canadian rockies was a beast to complete. I learned a lot, had fun doing it, the client was happy, and I think it is safe to say that there aren’t many people around who could have pulled it off. I had a very complex creative brief that envisioned [...]
