Who is Hugh O'Connor?
My background
I pride myself on creating high quality images in whatever medium I am working in. With my degree in Graphic Design and a career of creating art for a number of projects, I feel confident in my abilities to bring to life your ideas.
My Style
Almost all my work tends to have a photo-realistic quality to it. My palette of colors are the vibrant colors of real life, not a washed out post card look. I work in watercolors, acrylics, colored pencils, gouache and digital drawing.
I am proficient with Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign.
What you may have seen
As a Coast Guard Artist, some of my work is on permanent display in U.S. Coast Guard facilities, nationwide. I have also done paintings and portraits for the U.S. Marines and the Detroit Red Wings, hockey team. My illustrations have appeared on clothing and in publications. Many of my murals are in restaurants and homes in Michigan, and my boat models have been shipped to collectors worldwide.
