Fred Harper is a New York City illustrator who’s wielded his pen for the New York Times, The Wall Street Journal Sports Illustrated, … and soon enough, you.

Born in the wilds of Western PA, Fred began his career drawing caricatures in the carnival (traumatizing many a teenage girl in the process.)  A few years later, he was drawing Spiderman, Conan and Dr. Strange for Marvel and DC Comics.

Fred now does caricatures and editorial illustrations for places like The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Village Voice, and Sports Illustrated. He also paints three out of four covers for The Week Magazine.  Fred’s art has been published from Hong Kong to Honolulu.  He’s visually mocked everything from pug dogs to motorcycles, landscapes to Angelina Jolie’s lips.  Fred mostly works in gouache and Bristol (good for a fast turnaround!), but he’s also happy with oil paints, pencils, and Photoshop.

Sick of stock photography?  Fred is too.  So use the magic of his illustration to punch up annual reports, bedazzle your corporate communications, and polish your marketing brochures to a high sheen.  Fred can even do a portrait of that special executive someone.  And boy will investor relations improve when you give them something swank to look at!

So, use your sales collateral and hire Fred.
