Apple Fest!



The Downtown Westfield Corporation asked me to do an illustration for their upcoming autumn apple festival. Here's the final drawing.

The above piece, "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing", was accepted into CMYK 45. Congratulations to the other accepted entries!

Obama-Mania, Finals




Here's the final art. Took me a really, really long time, but I'm satisfied.

Obama-Mania





I've recently been commissioned to do two illustrations for Manhattan Commons magazine. I have to do a cover and an inside piece. The article talks a lot about how the accomplishments of the first 100 days of the Obama administration were obscured by attempts at bipartisanship that the author sees as futile. I decided to focus on that. The hands and commotion surrounding the President will be painted red and blue, representing the left and right respectively. Obviously, there's a lot more process work -- these were just the polished ones I sent to the art director. I'll put up some more process work and final painting as they come. The first sketch (labeled sketch number 3) was approved for the inside illustration. The last one (labeled sketch number one) was approved for the cover of the publication.

Habeas Corpus



I think I should stop painting Abraham Lincoln for a little while. This is getting out of hand.
