Samples of my Design and Illustration. Please contact me at jsshayes@gmail.com to inquire about my work.
Sean Young Blade Runner
I am obsessed right now with the look and feel of blade runner. The Film Noir quality in a futuristic setting. Thought I would do this drawing of Sean Young's character. Her wardrobe on the film is amazing.
Happy Halloween
Hilarious poster I made for my room mate's and my Halloween party. It is going to be a blast. Maybe I'll post a picture of some of the photos of the party. Ha ha!!!
Black Swan
A friend asked me to throw a poster together for her for. She wanted the Black Swan theme. What a great idea.
The Greyhound
I started sketching this Greyhound but stopped after the body and moved to just a portrait. I liked the eyes too much. I think the Greyhound is such an beautiful dog. I would love to have one but I think it would be a little big for my apartment. Maybe an Italian Greyhound or a Whippet perchance.
My Deer
I wanted to let everyone know I am going to be doing some prints in the next week. I am very excited about this. Please let me know if there is one of my pieces that you would like to see in poster form. Shoot me an email, I would love to hear from you.
Sketches For A Client
Wanted to share with you few sketches of a branding I just started working on for a client. It is still yet to be complete but I loved how these sketches came out. Once the final is done I will share it with you.
Sara Chirici
A sketch of Italian blogger Sara Chirici. She has a great blog called
Trendy Trashy
I have done a bunch of stuff for her in the past. Check out her blog.
Queen
Sorry it has been so long with out a post. Between my work and personal stuff going on I have been so busy. I am also working on my official website. I am really excited about that. More stuff to come sooner then later, I promise.
New Sketches
I wanted to post these new sketches I was working on. None of them a finished product but I really like the look of them partway done. I will be posting them in the future in a finished state.
Jeanine and Clint
Two new pieces for this post. The first one is a design using my friend Jeanine. I love the flowers wrapping around her. I took pictures of her about four years ago and have finally used them for a piece. The second is a shot from The Good The Bad The Ugly of Clint Eastwood. I have always been a huge western movie fan. I think anyone that is loves this movie.
Bunny Santa Kazoo
The CEO of my company sent me an email asking me to make a design for a t-shirt he wanted for something personal. I have no idea what it was about but this is what he said, "I need a picture with a person dressed as a bunny, then a + sign a santa, another + sign and a head with a marching band hat playing a kazoo." This is what I sent him and he said perfect. That was a relief.
Horses In Love... awwwwww
I really do not draw animals as often as I should. Just thought I would break it up a bit. The one with the flowers just got a little too cute for me (but I think my Grandmother would love it) so I had to do a version with shapes. Going to try my hand at some other animals in some future posts.
Profile and Pattern
Did some more just free sketching ideas for future projects. I want to work more patterns into my work. Now off to the art store to buy some paper. A sketch of Claudia.
Southern Hospitality

Sketch of fashion blogger Jordan Streetman of the blog Southern Hospitality. Great blog!!
Sleigh Bells
A long time ago I was in a metal band. During that time I played some shows with Derek while he was in his old band Poison The Well. I recently saw him here in SF and met Alexis. Really nice people.
I am really happy about how the lettering came out in this piece. I have a couple more pieces I will be posting this week.
"When It Pains It Roars" Blake Schwarzenbach
In the mid nineties there was pretty much only one band that mattered to me and that was Jawbreaker. You could say they were the soundtrack to my early twenties. So thought I would do a portrait of Blake (singer guitarist). I used a photo by Chrissy Piper for reference (a fantastic photographer).
Lady Gaga Lorem Ipsum
I love drawing typeface as much as figures. The design aspect of having the figures living in this world of type is an obsession of mine. Lorem Ipsum and Lady Gaga ... what a perfect combo.
