Nazario reveals here some of his last realizations. Of course we can find collage, drawing, retro elements, modern and vintage photographs and graphic elements. Whether it is for editorial, printed or animated advertising, or even for identity, Nazario creates strong and aesthetic images who are able to reach a large public. To see more, click here.

Here are 2 illustrations that, unfortunately, haven't been published because of an editorial contents change. But, as the client and us found the images particularly beautiful, we decided to share them with you. The subject Emmanuel Polanco illustrated deals with the celebrities and their psychoanalyses.

The wallpaper of this month has been completely realized from plasticine for the  "Positive Side Effects" Colagene's guide by Andi Meier. Instead of a whole day spent in front of his computer, the artist prefers from far the handmade-work. His first concern when he's working on a project is to make people smile. After studying graphic design and illustration in Nuremberg, he now lives and works in Hamburg, Germany

Series of illustrations by Benoit Tardif realized for the article "Young people in 2014, a small lexicon of the involved Youth" from Telerama Magazine. They always want to redo the world. No, the young peoples aren't uninterested. Here is a complete overview of the causes they are defending and the emergent forms of commitment.

 The Colagene experience according to our clients:

I love to work with Colagene for the great work quality of their artists, their positioning, their reliability and also their seriousness in our exchanges. Marie-Christine, always passionnated and in a good mood, contributes largely to the work fluidity. Many thanks.
Céline Hein, Art Director, journal du CNRS

Thanks to Colagene, we were able to get in a very tight deadline, high quality illustrations which were perfect for our request. It is an excellent collaborator, I don’t hesitate a moment to recommend this agency.
Janie Lamontagne, Art Director, LOULOU magazine

It was a true pleasure to work with Marie-Eve Tremblay and Colagene team on the book La Méchante petite poulette dans La Vengeresse Masquée et Le Loup (The Bad-tempered chick in The Masked Avenger and the Wolf). Marie-Eve understood very well the world and the tone of author Pierre Dubé’s text and she brilliantly illustrated it . We will probably work again with her very soon. Who knows, maybe for a second book about new adventures of this bad-tempered chick.

Every month, Silke Werzinger is creating an illustration for SunglasseHut #SketchesOfStyle campaign. Each month she gives her magic touch to a new style. For October’s round, Silke has to bring the Cat Eye Shape into a mysterious mood perfect for Halloween.

Original and unique artwork created by Mamzelle Poppy during the Positive Side Effects event in Paris. 60 x 80 cm. Cotton canvas stretched.

Benoit Tardif illustrated an article about the ageing of the Human body for this November issue of Quebec Science Magazine.

Here we are! They are finally available online, and more than this, le delivery is free. The "Positive Side Effects" exhibition screenprintings traveled from Montreal to Paris via Sète, in the South of France. But their trip isn't over yet... Christmas is coming and it is a more than perfect gift !

The Colagene experience according to our clients:

Working with Colagene was a truly enjoyable experience. The clinic's database of artists gave us the opportunity to consider many different illustrators and illustration styles and find the one that best suited our concept and our needs. I also greatly appreciated Aaron McConomy’s careful consideration of the creative brief, and his ability to integrate multiple complex themes into a coherent, cohesive and attention-getting illustration.
Victoria Leenders-Cheng , editor-in-chief, Focus 2014, McGill Faculty of Law

I love working with Colagene because they have diverse illustrators. I have worked with Emmanuel Polanco numerous times and he is amazingly creative with fresh and clever ideas which are always to the point. I love his techniques and he is very pleasant to work with.
