Illustration
Brother Horse
Two brother horses we met while camping at Merck Forest in VT. After a 2 mile hike, we emerged from the woods and came across these handsome, friendly fellows, which I consequently made into a fridge magnet. Pen with water color. Neat.
Botanical Illustration Redux
Hand drawn flowers using an old botanical illustration as a guide and layered with water color.
Tweaked Out Tree
I don’t know where this tree came from, but here it is. Try to find all the faces, there are many.
The Ferry
Staten Island Ferry illustration made while I was interning at Spiewak. This was ultimately used on one of their ‘05 t-shirts. Go NY!
Good Ol’ Renny
Long story short, this gentleman was dubbed ‘Renny’ and was the key character for Renegade Marketing’s summer play day. We called all staff to compete for the fictional character’s inheritance. So much so, we even put a fake obituary in the NY Sun.
This Is My Version of Selling Out
Flyer for the final show for my experimental animation class at NYU. Excellent times. Maybe I’ll even post some of my animations one day.
Warped Tree
I believe this tree was from Thompkin Sq Park in NYC. My apologies for the blur, still working on my scanning skills/patience.
Keep Yelling
Pen illustration of a Spanish singer I don’t know yelling a quote I don’t remember the context for. That’s what happens when you are bored in another country.
Astrud
Manolo from Astrud, pop rock band from Barcelona. Listened to their album Performance on repeat for the 5 months I studied abroad in Madrid. Done in pencil and probably not the best scan…
Waiting at the Airport
Pencil illustration while waiting at the airport on my way to Madrid for a semester abroad. Inspired by the people around me. I was bored. Very, very bored.
