WHAT DO MY CLIENTS SAY?

"This is the best illustrator in advertising. Period. You're welcome." - Eric Kallman: Wieden+Kennedy, Barton F Graf 9000, Goodby Silverstein & Partners.

"He’s fast, good, and most importantly, funny. He’s got the holy trinity of illustrator-y things that are very, very, very hard to find." - Matt Sorrell: Wieden+Kennedy

“I've worked with Kieron for almost a decade. He is professional, timely and polite, and his drawings are so fucking funny that laughter will rip your throat to shreds and explode your eyeballs into gooey rivulets that drip down your red, shaking cheeks. He also handles revisions very quickly. I cannot recommend him more highly.” - Jason Kreher: Creative Director, Wieden+Kennedy

"We have worked with Kieron for over 9 years at W+K Portland. He has come through in every instance and our creatives love to work with him. He gets their ideas quickly, and nails it every time. He puts up with all our crazy requests with ease." - Wendy Martenson: Associate Studio Director, Wieden+Kennedy

"If you don't hire Kieron, you will most likely fail at everything you ever do in your life." - Eric Baldwin: Creative Director, Wieden+Kennedy

ABOUT ME

Some people call me a Conceptivist. Others call me an Illustrationator. Some people call me Maurice, because I speak about the pompitous of love. Seriously, don't get me started on the pompitous of love. My name is Kieron Dwyer and I am an all-purpose illustrator specializing in storyboards and comp illustrations for advertising, and whatever you want to call me, just call me: 1-646-9-BOARDS.

I have been a working artist since 1987, beginning my career at Marvel and DC Comics, where I drew many popular titles such as Batman, Superman, Captain America and The Avengers. I've also co-created many graphic novels for smaller, independent publishers, such as Night Mary, Remains, and Last of the Independents. They're good, you should read them.

During my advertising career, I've been fortunate to work with many great agencies on award-winning campaigns for Old Spice, Coca-Cola, EA Games, and Target, among others. I bet I've worked on one or two of your favorite commercials, the kind you don't automatically skip past on your DVR. I'm on a horse.

My skillset includes:

  • FAST: I enjoy working on short turnaround jobs and pride myself on the ability to give my clients exactly what they need very quickly without any sacrifice in quality. 
  • ON POINT: My nearly 30 years of experience in sequential storytelling means I "get it."  As you look through my storyboard and print ad comps, please note how many of the angles/shots/compositions I envisioned were used in the printed images and commercials. 
  • VERSATILE: I enjoy trying new art styles and welcome all challenges. From loose concept sketches to print-ready work, from simple black-and-white key frames to layered color files for animatics, I can provide anything you may need.

Please contact me by email at contact[at]kierondwyer[dot]com or phone 1-646-9-BOARDS and give me the opportunity to enhance your project.
