New Style #10: Drink To Your Health
Finally got to double digits on the new style. Here is something I've been working on, for an article that I saw in Sunset Magazine called:
"Drink to your health; Stop in for a tea tasting at the new breed of bar opening up across the West."


I reduced the size of the head at the behest of my rep. I still kind of like the larger head. Tell me which one you like better in the comments.
A little background on the caduceus (that intertwined snake/medical symbol) with tea leaves (instead of feathers). I based it on Haitian voodoo symbols, called "veve's"

New Style #9: Le Diable Vert

I saw a blog "covered" where illustrators "cover" a comic book cover in their own style.
I was inspired to do my own cover of a vintage 1906 poster by Leonetto Cappiello, for a wine called Maurin Quina.

I changed it to an absinthe, and with the help of my French friend, David, he helped me come up with:
Le Diable Vert, (The Green Devil).
"Laissez sortir votre diable" means "Let your devil come out"
Apparently there really is an absinthe called "Le Diable Vert" I need to try it.

News: Target Gift Card for Winter Holiday 2009
Over a year ago I did a fake Target Gift Card.
Then back in October 2008, I got a request for sketches for Christmas gift card ideas. 2 of those ideas were chosen to go to final. Today I got word, that one of the cards was chosen to be produced for Winter Holiday 2009. Once its produced, I'll put up an image.
The art director at Target was amazingly great and easy to work with.
