Boulder Colorado Illustrated Map

I'm excited I can finally post about my newest map illustration!

It highlights great restaurants, coffee shops and stores in Boulder Colorado.  It was art directed by Rebecca Hechtr and Jim McCann, who were both wonderful to work with.  Check it out in the November issue of Sunset Magazine.  Also, you can read the article online here.

Rhode Island Monthly

During July, I was contacted by Associate Art Director, Carolyn Marsden, for Rhode Island Monthly.  She asked me to illustrated an article about an urban outreach yoga program for seventh and eighth graders.  What an amazing idea!  I wish my junior high school had offered this.

Yoga is an excellent way to reduce stress, improve focus and raise self-esteem ... pretty much things we all would like to work on.  Thanks Carolyn for the great commission!

Seven Days Magazine : Adirondack Issue

Afew weeks ago I was asked to make a cover illustration for Seven Days, an independant Vermont magazine.  It was art directed by Celia Hazard, who was a pleasure to work with.  It was a super tight turn around time (about 3 or 4 days).

The cover includes the Champlain Bridge, tubing in the Adirondack Mountains and a woodsmen chopping down a tree.  All stuff that appears in that issue.

Today's Parent : Debate Illustration

Today's Parent, September issue is out!  And so is the latest illustration I made for their debate page.  This debate was about breastfeeding past age two.  Seems like a pretty hot topic these days.  Hope you enjoy my little suckling piglets!

Today's Parent: Debate Illustration

Back in May I was asked to do another debate page illustration for Today's Parent Magazine.  I love illustrating for them.  It's always such a pleasure working with the art directors there.

So this debate was about how you, as a parent, feel about your kids listening to music with explicate lyrics.  You can read it online here.  Today's Parent always has such interesting topics for this column.

Today's Parent: Debate Illustration

The July issue of Today's Parent Magazine came out and I had the pleasure of creating the illustration for the debate page.  The article asked, should you let your kid play with toy guns, read it here.

Thanks very much to the Art Director, Nicole Chung, for the great commission!

Barn, Great Horned, Long-eared

A couple weeks ago, I was commissioned to make an illustration as a gift for a baby shower.  They wanted something not too girly, and not too babyish.  I had a great time looking at all kinds of owl photo reference.  They have such interesting and rather ghostly faces.

Below, I included my rough sketch.
