Starbucks Holiday Illustrations by Jon Cannell

Jon writes:

“Hi Lilla!
Holiday just launched at Starbucks. I illustrated most of the campaign in a completely different style than I usually work in. The inspiration comes from classic Art Deco artwork from the 20s and 30s. I worked mainly on the illustrations and the talented designers in the Starbucks Creative Group translated them into signs, coffee bags, gift boxes etc… I hope you like it!
Take care.”

We asked Jon Cannell to do robot imagery for his banner for the Surtex booth.

Jon did this image and we had it printed on fabric seven feet tall for our Surtex show booth. Luv ya, man.
He got a LOT of interest in this piece. For example, lap top skins.

Some great new work by Jon Cannell

I’m going to tell you something a little surprising. I’ve been rep’ing Jon for a lot of years. (That’s not the surprising part.) At first, Jon didn’t get a lot of work. Hard to believe. He is perfect for editorial. Why didn’t he get work? I think he was ahead of his time. It happens. Don’t use that as an excuse. You will know if you’re ahead of your time if really great art directors love your work but there’s not a lot of jobs yet. Don’t despair!
I’m happy to say that that is a distant memory and Jon is a very busy artist.

BTW, these pieces are all work from illustration jobs.

Jon Cannell’s collections

It’s funny about Jon. I think he’s been with me for eight years. I’ve loved his work and his warm ways (“I’m ‘Jim’ on the Office” says Jon.) But the funny thing is, as I started to say before I interrupted myself, is that, even though he helped create the look of Starbucks collateral and interior store imagery, he was slow to be received in editorial and in surface design. Clearly, he was ahead of his time. I am happy to say that now he is very busy with wonderful jobs. I’ll post his children’s book work here at some point.

Enjoy his napkin collection and the banners he did for Surtex.
