Oldie Moldies

The holiday season is upon us and I dug up an old illustration for the VC Reporter’s Last Minute Gift Guide. Done around 2004, acrylic on paper, 11″x17″.

Another illustration for an article about food storage for the winter. This one is called “Birds and Nuts”. The original is at Anacapa Brewery until January 8th.

Beauty Queen

I just did an illustration for an article about beauty pageants and children. The piece turned out OK but I had to make some major changes. I also wish I could have painted the illustration instead of coloring it in Photoshop but, I was under a half day deadline. A real rush job.

The finished illustration. Because of the weird dimensions (13.6″x 5.5″)I had to drastically alter the original concept.

My initial sketch for the illustration:
