  • Human Cell biology illustration by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    Interior of a human cell. The original file was about 10x10 ft. A second version was of the same cell being attacked by free radicals. Details not discernable at this size are individual proteins and surface textures.

  • Asahi/America valves illustration by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    Asahi/America asked to have a unique look for their advertising, annual reports and trade exhibits. I did 6 different illustrations of their valve products in this unique style.

  • map illustration for The Nature Conservancy by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    When The Nature Conservancy needed a map showing the scope of area affected by the Great Bay I created this from a variety of area maps. It is simple in color in order to show the extent of water features.

  • Composite illustration of colorized x-rays by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    An annual promotional calendar for Hologic's x-ray customers. This design addressed two separate purposes. It was a calendar, but when trimmed to the pinline it was also a frameable poster. I converted x-ray files of real clocks and composed and colorized in Photoshop.

  • complex transparent/cutaway illustration of a coal-fired power plant by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    I climbed all through the real powerplant in order to get it all correct. This cutaway illustration is used for educational purposes.

  • Photo composite and heavily retouched image illustration by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    This image was created from 12 separate photographs (both stock and custom) combined with my own digital creations. The result is a very believeable hospital scenario.

  • cartoon illustration by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    One of my several "comic" styles, this is from a series from a 5-part direct marketing program for a software company.

  • A photorealistic cube from multiple photos of dry chemicals for Strem Chemicals illustration by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    I combined chemical photos and created a realistic-looking cube puzzle for the cover of a catalog. The idea was to focus the chemist on the purity and variety of the client's chemicals.

  • Exploded view of a large turbine generator illustration by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    An expanded view of the inside of a large generic turbine. I kept it simplified for educational use.

  • Strem publication cover illustration by Jim Grenier dba Renegade Studios

    My client Strem Chemicals needed a cover for their emerging products which aren't in their catalog. I came up with the idea of bending a lightbulb tube into a representation of an atom's electron path.

I have limited all my portfolios to what best represents my work. In some cases there may be a dozen or more examples and in other cases, fewer. I also refrained from creating portfolios for every area of my skillset, concentrating on the primary ones.

The reason for this is simple. After decades of work in a wide range of media and markets, trying to show more is simply an overkill. It is unprofessional to try to show everything, so try to judge me on the overall quality of what you see here and what you read in my testimonial section.

Chances are you will like and appreciate many things, even if they may not be your style.
