Default Leo Blanchette, Web Design and Graphic Design Icons

I have a lot of images around the web that are very helpful to designers. The "Orange Man" series in particular is a favorite of Web Designers and Graphic Designers, as they tap into a leading color trend, have a lighthearted professional appeal, and are easy to impliment without distracting from the subject.



See the rest of my portfolio for other options:

I do my vector work out of Illustrator. Thanks for all the compliments! I love vector art so much I just might take another attempt at learning calculus!

I love vector art a lot as well, i do a bunch of icons for fun, my job mostly deals with layout and photo retouching so i rarely get the opportunity to use Illustrator. It's ironic really, Illustrator is one of my stronger programs.

I'll see if I can't get a list of links to sites that have used them. There must be hundreds by now the way they sell on shutterstock and Istock...besides the others. Problem is I'm only contacted by a *small* fraction of the people who buy them.

As far as the icons, vixen, try uploading a few as stock. You might be surprised.

This was used in a designer spotlight on Istock. With all the custom work I did for people, you'd think I would ask what websites they are using them on!

Design Spotlight - Simple Banner Design | iStockphoto.com

I'd love to know a way to track down my files to see where they are!
