Nike Presents Onwards by James Jarvis
April 23, 2009 ⋅ Uncategorized ⋅ by Eugene Kan ⋅ 22 Views

Having been quiet for most of 2009, famed illustrator James Jarvis has had a strong career seeing many of his illustrations developed into toys with his Amos Toys brand. The illustrators iconic free flowing characters and style have now made the jump into motion with his short cartoon titled Onwards. The Nike sponsored film features a simplistic un-referential character with a skinny body and large, rounded head. Similar to James’ own penchant for running, we follow the character through a series of different and invigorating landscapes. Watch the full video above.
