Patrick Hoesly’s Summary

I’m an architectural illustrator creating 2D & 3D presentation images for designers to visualize and sell their designs. I’m experienced producing computer models, renderings, animations, graphic designs, and marketing materials.

My greatest strength is my architectural background as it allows me to communicate effectively with architects and designers. I can read CD drawings, specifications, sketches, and understand the architectural language. I completely understand an architect’s schedule and the need for things to be done correctly and on time.

I'm also the author and Illustrator of two watercolor books:
Words in Watercolor. ISBN: 978-0-557-08819-5
Quotes in Watercolor. ISBN: 978-0-615-32153-0

Patrick Hoesly’s Experience

  • Freelance Illustrator

    Zooboing Architectural Illustrations llc

    (Graphic Design industry)

    April 2005Present (4 years 8 months)

    Zooboing architectural illustrations was established by myself when more people heard of my illustration services and wanted me to help out on a short term basis.

    3D renderings & Illustrations are more than pretty pictures. They are tools to help people envision the future, find capital investments, win city approval, and verify green designs.

    Through Zooboing Architectural Illustrations, I've provided Modeling, Animation, Rendering, Graphic Design, and Multimedia services to designers nation wide.

    While I'm easy to laugh & get along with, I do take the renderings seriously. They are the real world representation of the architects dreams. This concept is where the company's catch phrase came from; "we help you dream it, design it and draw it."

    I've built my company on word of mouth, and have formulated my work on the simple business practice of being honest, fair, and doing great work to make my clients look great!
