ARTS cover for the Hartford Courant

I always get excited when I get a call from the Hartford Courant because I love to work with them. One of the designers that I work with often, Elizabeth, called a few weeks back about doing an end of the year ARTS section cover, but unfortunately it was right before the holidays and I was on my way to the airport to visit family. Thankfully, she called back a couple of weeks later and asked me to do this cover for the Winter ARTS cover. The section would cover an overview of upcoming events, concerts, museum openins, etc. I had a blast with this job - especially drawing Lady GaGa. Thanks as always to Elizabeth, always a pleasure working with her. Enjoy!

2010 brings new work!

Happy New Year everyone! With the new year comes some new work! Below is a Cover and Spread illustration I worked on for Common Ground Magazine. This story is about how common it is for a new home buyer to purchase a home in a new development, and all of a sudden the developer runs out of money. The home buyers find themselves in a beautiful new home, but in the middle of nowhere - with suspended construction, overgrown landscape, etc.

Special thanks for Cori the great project and wonderful collaboration!
