As always I am here for all your illustration, animation and design needs in many different styles.

Business Comics are a fantastic solution for bringing ideas to the viewer.
Comic strips are wonderful way of communicating concepts and ideas to an audience of all ages and also across all languages.
From story concept to character design to illustration artwork I am experienced in creating custom, tailor-made comics for international clients.
Design Etiquette de Vin:
Mas de Figuier “Roc de Couder”
Pour le célèbre domaine viticole Mas de Figuier à 34270 Vacquières, on m’a demandé de concevoir une étiquette pour un nouveau vin rouge haut de gamme appelé Roc de Couder.
Jouant sur le mystère de ce Roc légendaire, mais aussi sur la longue histoire et les nombreuses légendes entourant le Pic Saint Loup et le Languedoc et même le Château de Montségur et Rennes le Château, je me suis plongé dans une interprétation artistique qui, je l’espère, transmet la chevalerie, le courage et peut-être aussi un mystérieux et presque magique effet d’effusion de vie de ce vin délicieux.
Le vin peut être commandé chez :

Wine Label Design:
Mas de Figuier “Roc de Couder”
by Ian David Marsden
For the renowned wine domaine Mas de Figuier in 34270 Vacquières, I was asked to design a label for a new high-end red wine called ‘Roc de Couder’.
Playing on the mystery of this fabled ‘Roc’ and also the long history and many legends surrounding the Pic Saint Loup and Languedoc region and even the Château de Montségur and Rennes le Chateau, I delved into an artistic interpretation that hopefully conveys chivalry, valor and maybe also a mysterious, almost magical life-force bestowing effect of this delicious wine.
The wine can be ordered at:

Illustration by Ian David Marsden

Wednesday, April 12, 2017
It was on December 2nd, 1998 (almost 20 years ago!) that I started my first website “Marsdencartoons.com”.
It evolved over many iterations, and later for several years it also hosted the Marsdencartoons Cartoonist’s Directory which was a popular resource to find links to illustrators and cartoonists all over the world.
Since I don’t only draw cartoons but also create more “serious” illustrations and logos and character designs for various clients all over the world, I decided in 2014 to create my new homepage MARSDEN ILLUSTRATION, which you see before you and which embodies all the various facets of my work in my PORTFOLIO
Such as my personal sketchbook, the first Google Doodles which were created by me, Advertising and Business Illustration, Custom Whiteboard Videos and Explainer Videos design and production, Editorial Illustration, Comics, Logos, Character Design and Mascot Design, Ritzenhoff Designs, Children’s Book Illustration, Wacom Tutorial Videos by Ian Marsden, Packaging Design and some of the album covers I created for La Toya Jackson and Ja-Tail Enterprises LLC.
For a few years it autoforwarded to my new domain, but a few months ago I let the old marsdencartoons.com domain name expire. A fresh new start.
It appears that another company has purchased the domain name marsdencartoons.com and is now putting up a website for Illustration and Graphics.
This is of course perfectly fine and quite normal I guess by Internet standards, although it would be interesting to know who the “Marsden” is who is featured in their domain name. Because one thing I can tell you is that it is NOT me.
For the record, I wanted to state categorically: that I, Ian David Marsden, am no longer the owner of the domain marsdencartoons.com, I am in no way involved in their enterprise, and am not affiliated anymore in any way with marsdencartoons.com. Any transactions with this domain will not include any involvement with me and you will not be purchasing artwork created by me.
If you wish to contact me (Ian David Marsden) regarding graphic design, illustrations or cartoons, then the only official website is this one: www.marsdenillustration.com

Thank you for your continued interest in my artwork and more from my studio very soon.
All the best,
Ian
