Brand Illustration

KOOPERATIV Coworking Campaign

Challenge

Translate KOOPERATIV’s community values into one cohesive visual world — and adapt it across multiple physical formats (cups, print, and large window displays) while staying brand-consistent.

Solution

Built a “resident archetype” and translated it into a limited-palette, mirrored illustration system — designed as a reflection of the coworking community and produced for cups, notebooks, and storefront windows.

Result

Produced and installed across KOOPERATIV’s physical touchpoints

Brand Illustration

PUMA & BIMBO Campaign

Challenge

Create a clear, inviting key visual that unites sport, coffee, and running under the Puma brand — while showcasing the new sneaker line in a way that’s instantly understandable to a broad audience.

Solution

Built the concept around a sporty “runner archetype” shown in motion, and turned it into a simple visual story: the character is chasing a goal — and the final destination becomes a coffee break at the café created through the PUMA collaboration.

Result

A completed in-store window display (ready for print and placement).

Publishing

ILLUSTRATIONS FOR
PUBLISHINGS

Challenge

Create a cover system that instantly communicates the book's meaning - so a reader immediately understands the tone, theme, and what awaits inside.

Solution

Identified the book's most striking imagery, decoded the symbolic "color" of that core motif, and translated it into a minimalist cover system - using a bold, eye-catching composition that grabs attention instantly.

Result

Delivered print-ready book files and a complete production package, including final layouts and polished mockups for presentation.

Album Cover

Illustrations for
HYPHEN DASH

Challenge

Create a visual world for 'Hyphen Dash' that works across different covers, capturing the project's vibe while staying distinct for each release.

Solution

Designed a flexible illustration system based on central character archetypes, allowing us to change moods through color and composition while keeping the main character recognizable.

Result

A cohesive series of album covers that feel like part of one story, giving the artist a strong, consistent identity across all platforms.

Why clients choose to work with me

Strong Concept-First Approach

I don't just draw pretty pictures. I solve communication problems. Every line has a purpose.

Clean delivery for teams

CMYK-safe, web-ready, and organized files your designers and printers can use immediately.

Reliable timelines

You always know what’s next: checkpoints, revisions, and delivery dates are clear.

I’m cool (professionally).

I art-direct the whole project. From concept to final files.

I build the concept, define the visual direction, and lead it all the way through — your team can jump in for technical tweaks when needed.

My job is to turn ideas into real, physical touchpoints that people notice, remember, and want to engage with.

Strong visuals don’t just look good — they improve attention, perception, and conversion across the funnel.

How we work together

1. Discovery & Brief

We hop on a call to discuss goals, specs, and timeline. I deliver a quote within 24h.

2. Concepts & Sketches

I provide 2-3 loose conceptual directions. We choose the strongest path.

3. Refinement

Detailed line work and color blocking. Two rounds of revisions included.

4. Final Delivery

High-res files + source files. Rights transfer upon final payment.

Hey, I'm Alex Velboy

I'm Alex Velboy — a Europe-based illustrator & visual artist.

I work with brands, editors, and creative teams who want visuals with a clear idea — not just something "nice"

My superpower is absurd thinking with precision: I take a brief, find the weird truth inside it, and push it until the concept clicks hard — visually, emotionally, and strategically.

Human detail, because I'm not a PDF: I've wanted to be an artist since I was a kid. Somehow it worked out — and now my favorite part is taking wild concepts and turning them into something real: campaigns, spaces, covers, murals, installations, an object you can touch and visuals you can actually live with.

What people say

Common Questions

How long does a project usually take?
Small projects (e.g., one illustration) typically take about one week. Bigger projects usually take 2–4 weeks, depending on scope.
How many concepts do you provide?
At the start, we align on the idea and I deliver two fully developed concept sketches. Each concept comes with its own story, meaning, and visual logic.
How many revision rounds are included?
We lock the direction at the sketch/concept stage, then I refine it with your feedback while keeping the overall vision consistent. Small tweaks and clarifications are included (up to ~10), but the final artistic direction stays with me.
Do you deliver source files?
Yes — I provide the files you need for your use case, including print-ready and high-resolution digital versions. Source files can be included when required and agreed in advance.
What does your process look like, step by step?
We start with a call to explore the idea, goals, and best execution options, then sign a contract. If it’s a physical space, I visit (or work from materials), build a plan, share the initial vision, and then deliver final files.
How does pricing and payment work (deposit, milestones)?
I work with a 50% deposit for projects of any size. Payment terms are clearly stated in the contract we sign before starting.
Do you take rush projects?
Yes, rush projects are possible depending on my schedule. Timeline and rush fee are discussed individually.
What do you need from me to get started?
A quick conversation about what you have and what you want to achieve, plus access to your materials or space (if applicable). After that, I take the lead and handle the process.
Can we work together if my business is in another country?
Absolutely — I work internationally and we can run everything via calls, messages, and mockups. For physical applications, I prepare clear production-ready files and guides tailored to your format.
Can we plan a long-term collaboration?
Yes — long-term projects are welcome once we align on the scope, timeline, and working rhythm. I can lead the visual direction as an art director throughout the collaboration.
