I’ve been producing illustrations for e-learning since 2001. Since e-learning can be a rather dry experience, I’ve found that a loose cartoon style works well, when set against the hard edges of the e-learning interface.
E-learning illustrations for Xebec McGraw-Hill
I worked for 2 years at Xebec McGraw-Hill producing illustrations and Flash animations, for large clients such as Lloyds TSB, the DTI and Coop Insurance. Here is small selection of that work:

E-learning illustrations for Single Parent Action Network
Shortly after Xebec closed, I built and illustrated 2 large Moodle e-learning projects for Single Parent Action Network (SPAN). These were aimed at the wider community, so it was important to reflect diversity in the illustrations:
