Leo Acadia has created colorful graphic illustrations for a wide range of clients - magazines such as Time and Reader's Digest, and for book covers, advertising, and pharmaceuticals. He has earned recognition from The Society of Illustrators, Communication Arts, American Illustration, 3x3 Illustration Annual, and The AltPick awards.
Actually, John S. Dykes creates these graphic works under the name Leo Acadia. (See some of John's work
here.) The styles are very different and showing them in the same portfolio threatened civility. The decision to promote separately was made, and all the people were happy.
The approach from concept thru execution is different. I think mainly in terms of shapes, textures, and layers - as if I am working with cut paper - trying for a bold, more simple and graphic look. I usually shoot for a quick conceptual read that is clear whether the final size will be poster or postage stamp.
