Ed Shems

Bio

I have been illustrating since 1991, just after graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design. I have illustrated more than 25 children's books and puzzle and activity books (and one joke book), as well as designed characters for a number of companies including Scholastic and Disney. I create editorial illustrations for magazines and I work in a number of different styles to suit the needs of my clients. I'm also a designer of logos, brochures, t-shirts and identity systems. I won an American Graphic Design award in 2008 for a brochure I created for Simmons College in Boston. I'm creative, always on time, easy to work with and easy to reach.
