Jacqui Oakley Illustration & Art

Lots of giant donut painting going on over at @ver_sands for @donutmonsterhamilton! More tomorrow and Saturday for Locke St Fest! (at Donut Monster) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnZplgUn1SF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11nkp0pyxty6k

Thrilled to have updated my #illustration jacquioakley.com & have a fancy new logo from the very talented @super_furry! We traded portrait for logo. I think I got the better end of the deal 😉. So glad I get to be inspired and actually collaborate with so many talented freelancers. You lift me up. Happy #NationalFreelancersDay! (at Hamilton, Ontario)

Ink portrait of Emily Hall Tremaine, a designer and art collector, who with her husband Burton assembled one of the outstanding American holdings of 20th-century art. Also the benefactor behind the Tremaine Foundation, a large non-profit org. • • • • Portrait for @exhibitionsonthecusp which explores specific pieces from the Tremaine Collection and connects them to themes shaping contemporary art. So fun working with @margotharrington on this one. I do love drawing sassy women.

Really feeling like I need a vacation. Last two pages!!!! #space #moon #illustration #inking #art #drawing #jacquioakley #classicbooks (at Hamilton, Ontario)

Love how all the detail turned out and that @reebok and @penandpalates were cool about doing something a little wild. Suited the “fierce” brief I think! 🦁🦅 #reebok #tshirt #tank #fierce #sportswear #womensfashion #tshirtdesign #tshirtart #snake #feathers #teeth (at Hamilton, Ontario)

Got my @reebok tank on and ready to head out for a lemonade break! Summer is here. Thanks again AD. @penandpalates! Never had my art on a proper shirt before. Very exciting! (at Hamilton, Ontario)

Procrastinating drawing people by inking feathered friends. Cluck cluck. #ink #inking #illustration #artdemo #timelapseart #artistsoninstagram #timelapse #chickens #dogs #bookillustration #bookstagram

Hope you guys had a nice long weekend! Had lots of time with walks by waterfalls with the fam but I also drew a dog and a chicken getting their dance on. Both were equally fun. #ink #inking #illustration #artdemo #jacquioakley #timelapseart #artistsoninstagram #canadianart #timelapse #chickens #dogs #bookillustration #bookstagram #dance (at Hamilton, Ontario)

‪Really excited to show the poster @jamielawson & I collaborated on under our @ver_sands alias for the wonderful @HamOntFringe! Such amazing folks to work for especially since they let us draw a wiener dog in a bun. 😉 #hamont #hamontfringe #fringefest ‬#posterart #illustration

Is John Wick just a simulated training program for The Matrix’s Neo? Hmmmmm.... More fan conspiracy theories for @specspecfic magazine!

‪2 yrs ago I worked on this mural for the store @stagprovisions Austin w designer @positivegrump and @jswec painting for SXSW. Joe did such a great job! Still love seeing it pop up. #WillieforPresident!!! If only. Enjoy SXSW folks & say hello to the nice folks at #STAGaustin for me. It’s cold here.‬ (at Austin, Texas)
