Had the pleasure of attending the Workbook Creative Carnival last Thursday out in Chicago. This was my first time out to the carnival (no comments Bob) and it was a great time all around. It is really hard to have a bad time when you are asked to draw for prospective clients, get to mingle […]

Having looked at the book a few hours earlier, my colleague started to hand it back to me and began to ask some questions with a cautious tongue. His reaction was quite surprising to me, knowing […]
View post →To start, if you have not read Eddie Peña’s post on reportage illustration, go do it now and come on back. For one, he simply defines it as it is and elegantly goes on to describe his connection to reportage. The second reason is to see his drawing of the Eiffel Tower. I had the […]
