pressing


Recently I completed 4 small spot illos for Houston Press' "Best Of" issue.
This was a fun project because they all had to do with specific small business in the area.
These two were "Best Mohawk Technician" and "Best Vintage Clothing". Others I did included best pet boutique, and best bakery. It was fun to do mini narrative illustrations and a neat challenge to work in black and white...which i rarely ever do. I feel really fortunate to always get the best AD's to work with. Thanks Monica!!!
More this week.
