Warren Dayton’s Art
Warren loves to draw for books, ads, editorial, products and murals. His work has sold things for lots of folks. His logos and letterforms for companies and packaging are recognized around the world.
Warren Dayton's work became famous when it was collected as posters during the 1960's and 70's. 
About then, he had this great idea to put art on T-Shirts, big and in color! Funny: the store chain that commissioned the shirts, cancelled the line. They thought there would be no market for art on shirts..
Order Art / Contact
How I work: after a commission is discussed or proposed, I send a Work Order/Estimate that details the job and describes the scope, timing, rights granted and payment arrangements agreed on. Once the Work Order is signed and returned, I begin to draw…
How long will it take? How much will it cost? How level of quality do you provide? These are related questions: each thing affects the other. For example, if you need it in a rush and want great work, it will be balanced by a higher fee. Need it for less cost, but want fine images? – allow for a longer time.
As you can see in the examples: quality is what I strive for and do not compromise on.
Phases of Work:
I usually send 3-4 rough sketches, then proceed to create one comprehensive color version of the project of the selected direction. Included revisions are at rough and comprehensive stages only. Sometimes a client orders more work or changes for an additional fee.
I then deliver a final form to the place of your choice in a digital format, unless a client wishes to purchase the original art.
Editorial Art & Publishing: I prefer to illustrate a book or article by reading the whole text and not a synopsis; communicating well involves fitting an image to a story that I know.
Fine art, prints or murals: from line drawings to oil paintings, I have thousands of images created during my career. An original or digital copy may be purchased for the client to frame or mount, or can be produced as murals, wearable art, images on products and decorative applications.
Publishing rights can be negotiated for.
