In this CreativeMornings/Toronto talk, illustrator Gary Taxali speaks about his earlier work, talking about how he went from doing purely client-focused projects to his latest work, where the product is rarely, if ever, in the final piece. From Polish posters to UFOs, Gary discusses his various influences and how he keeps his illustrations fresh and creative.

A big hip-hip-hooray to FreshBooks for sponsoring and The Gladstone Hotel for hosting. Video was shot and edited by the fantastic Jordan Lloyd and Mathieu Martel.
