Now his personal works can be purchased directly from his studio and are signed, numbered and delivered with a certificate of authority. These unique images are available in a variety of sizes and formats to suit your office, your home or just your fancy. Pieces can be produced up to 40" x 90" on canvas or watercolor paper or plexi ( max 40" x 50"), we work with the finest printers in New York City and California to create the pieces and ensure that they are produced to his exact specifications. Bio Born and raised in Hobart, Tasmania, Laird has spent the majority of his life (so far) as a professional musician travelling extensively through Europe, US and Australia. Owing to extreme tiredness and a distaste for malodorous hotel rooms, Laird retired from the high life and settled in New York City where he now creates award winning imagery for editorial, corporate and advertising clients throughout the world.

Awards How International Design Annual American Illustration Society of Publication Designers Award SPOTS Competition Computer Arts Magazine Profile Artist Statement My work explores the structural relationships between line, shape and color. A blank sheet of paper is always the genesis, with each new element suggesting the next; in this way, an image is slowly developed over time into something complete and unique. Although the works are finally created in the computer, they are inspired by organic elements, such as the Tasmanian bush, a tree branch, waves trailing from a boat or a mass of rocks. There are no complicated filters or scanned elements. Everything is hand drawn using one basic vector program. My aim is to create simple, meditative works that fit naturally in modern environments.
