New Illustrations for Brandeis University



These illustrations are for Brandeis University magazine, the current fall issue. The article is about illegitimate adoption companies in third world countries that exploit the money of unknowing Americans to run a black market of stealing and selling children. Click on the link below to see the illustrations in context and to read the article. 

Aside from the seriousness of the article, I had a fantastic time working on the illustrations!

New pieces in mailer form



A couple new pieces and all three of my mailers. uprinting.com is AMAZING and gives you press-ready pdf proofs to print out and approve before you buy the actual  product. I have never felt more at ease about how my colors will come out on a printing project. So props to uprinting.com! I'd highly recommend them to anybody and their customer service was fantastic. Yay! 

Ps the borders are just on here to show you where they end. :)

What what! Degree project finishes!





I THOUGHT THIS DAY WAS A FIGMENT OF MY IMAGINATION!

Now watch as I attempt to type without using the key between "e" and "t" because it is not functioning on my laptop anymo*e.  I have been copy/pasting it but it does not seem let me in this window. 

They look a little dull on the blog but let me know what you think! This is 4 out of 6 images, the two left out need a little TLC.

She killed the witch!

And she didn't even know it. I think I figured out where I'm going with degree project. Its surreal. Not my degree project necessarily, but rather the fact that it feels somewhat feasible if I can get the last three finishes done over break. There are still a couple things I want to change about this image but I want to get them all to 90% before I start detailing any one of them. I'm really happy that I have my sketch done for the layout of the book. Things are making sense in the land of degree project! I
