Commissioning clients about Hilbrand:
Melissa Cordero, Project Manager Illumination Entertainment
I had the pleasure to work with Hilbrand on a set of his beautifully designed illustrations he completed for us on a very short notice. We were referred to his work by our partners at Universal Studios, and we just loved his work and saw him the best fit for a program we were designing. His work is very unique, and his work ethic as well! He is quick and responsive, efficient and a problem solver, as he solved a design challenge we had come upon. Hilbrand is a delight to work with, and very talented, to say the least.
Claire Guillaume, Bucherer AG
I have had the occasion to work with Hilbrand on a project for Watch and Jewellery retailer Bucherer. Hilbrand is a pleasure to work with, very professional with perfect communication and attention to detail. He has been providing us with beautiful artworks, always keeping us informed at all stages of the creation of the illustrations and taking into account every instruction we gave.
ANKE LAARSHUIS, visual strategist Bureau Blink
Hilbrand is niet alleen een hele goede, snelle kunstenaar / illustrator, hij denkt ook conceptmatig en commercieel mee. Hij tilt een concept op en weet er schwung en gevoel in te leggen. Prettig en rustig in de omgang, snel en alert in uitwerking. Zijn werk brengt overtuiging, enthousiasme en energie.
MATT JONES, director MONK London
Hilbrand is an incredibly talented artist and designer, who I genuinely believe enjoys every single line and brush stroke he makes. His style is current yet inimitable and his quietly confident manner will only make you want to work with him more.
MURRAY CLARK, Editor at The Watch Gallery
Hilbrand was a very communicative and talented freelancer we contacted for an online campaign - the first instance in which we've used an illustrator. We remained in frequent dialogue with Hilbrand and the whole process from briefing to delivery was smooth, reliable and detailed. The team was more than impressed with the finished artwork and I would strongly recommend Hilbrand to any client looking for an illustrator.
