Brain Quest 30th Anniversary series of educational workbooks and deck cards.

I’m so happy I can finally share SOME of what I’ve been up to for the past 2.5 years. First off is artwork for the Brain Quest 30th anniversary series of bestselling workbooks and deck cards. Over 2,500 spot illustrations along with some half and full-page, and four fold-out poster illustrations! 

The Brain Quest series includes kids from age two all the way up to age twelve, which provided me with a fair amount of variety in terms of drawing style and subject matter. From exotic creatures and landmarks, to Model Ts and spaceships, I was constantly kept on my toes as an illustrator! 

This was truly a dream project for me. The magnitude of this project didn’t fully sink in, however, until I paid a visit to Barnes and Noble and saw a display of all the workbooks and deck cards. Seeing a whole shelf display filled with Brain Quest products with my artwork in all of them was an amazing moment.

Big, heartfelt thanks to Dawn and Kevin from Fan Works Design, Art Director Erica Green, and the great folks at Brain Quest and Workman Publishing for bringing me on board and being so great to work with! 

Illustrator Scott DuBar contributed over 2,500 illustrations to the 30th Anniversary Brain Quest Workbooks and Deck Cards editions.

Testimonials

  • “I am so fortunate to have found Scott online; though we’ve never met in person, we collaborate virtually with great success. He makes every illustration special, and he frequently exceeds expectations as he envisions something more interesting, humorous or beautiful than what had been ordered. Given his talent, professionalism and versatility, I recommend him enthusiastically.”

    Angie King
    Owner, HappyReading.org
  • “Scott DuBar’s illustrations are both entertaining and insightful. He artfully communicates important information through visually appealing maps and clever, creative illustrations. His Happy Trails maps have transformed our approach to destinations in Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine, and they have become a popular resource for our readers.” 

    Will Harlan
    Editor in Chief, Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine
  • “Scott is always creative, and always on time. He takes my thoughts and words from articles, and delivers exactly what I envision. His art has become an integral and outstanding contribution to a regular editorial presence in the Utah Adventure Journal.” 

    Paul Oelerich
    Editor, Utah Adventure Journal
  • “I contracted Scott in 2011 to design a large backdrop illustration for a trade show booth that my company was creating for the 2012 New York Toy Fair. Scott did an absolutely fantastic job putting the illustration together (on-time) and completely exceeding all of my expectations. I really enjoyed working with him and plan on working with him again. The quality of his work was great, and everyone that saw the backdrop commented on how great it was. Thanks a lot!”
