I work full-time as an in-house illustrator for publishing company in Pleasant Grove called American Legacy Publishing. That's right, I get paid to draw and paint all day! Right now I am working on a series of books and this is an example of one of the covers. I created it from start to finish using Photoshop. It presented me with a lot of challenges but I'm happy with how it turned out. I had intended to deliberately avoid posting any work done at my job because I wanted my blog to motivate me to do my own creative work on the side. However, lately I have been doing a lot of extra work from home and I didn't want to go too long before posting something new. So hopefully I will soon find some time to do more of my own stuff because if I don't you can expect to see more examples of what I am doing from 9 to 5 every day.

This turned out so good! I think this is my favorite cover you've done so far - it looks great!
Chris, this cover is amazing. I love the integration of what appear to be traditional and graphic techniques.
You may want to shrink the image or create a watermark to protect your company's property, and your rights.
Great job.
Wow! This is stunning! I love the execution of lines and the colors!Beautiful!
Good job. Like I've said before, Your night scene is fantastic.
That is incredible Kris!!!
Kris is that little boy really just a representation of you as a little boy. I swear that that is the exact same face that you gave when you stole Ol' Farmer McGubbins honey pots. Sorry to dredge up that painful part of your past.
