Ronald Slabbers Illustration


I’ve been a professional illustrator for 30+ years
specializing in iconic, graphic and humorous illustration.

As most of us I have just one brain and two hands, but
there are as many ways of executing my work as
there are techniques. Ranging from traditional hand work to complex computer techniques, I love finding myself in the middle and using best of both worlds. I’ve even discovered the electric jigsaw as my new drawing tool.

I'm rather proud to have an old certificate from 1993 on my wall that states that I'm a certified Photoshop 2.5!! user... Don’t worry, I use CS now.










Besides my regular work I developed this series of illustrations. They may seem cartoon-like, but I prefer to call them 'drawings'. Some are political, some are poetical, all are very much me.

No clients involved, I just made these for my own pleasure.
None of the works have been published, so far.

Recently I rediscovered the mix of graphic adventure and the
relaxing powers of traditional painting. Also the jig saw was added to my graphic tool box. Click here to see "the Other Ron". I am working  on a small new website specially dedicated  to my new way of working.
