TOM WHALEN: NICKTOONS CALENDAR PIECES

Autumn Society member & Illustrator extraordinaire, Tom Whalen (strongstuff.net) has been like an unstoppable illustration machine, blazing through the last couple of years with his cutting edge designs and posters. His work has been feaured on /Film, Mondo, WIRED, SXSW and many other prestigious publications, anthologies, and events! Tom has easily added a new chapter to pop-culture advertising and some have even called the digital-age Drew Struzan.

Here at the Autumn Society we are very proud to have Tom be part of our group and are very appreciative to how much he's contributed to all our shows and events in the last 3 years.

From time to time we will blog about Tom's latest & greatest. Recently Tom had the opportunity to do some work for Nicktoons, designing a whole calendar for them. Below are some our personal favorites. Click on any of the images or HERE to view more!
