American Writer’s Museum

A friend of mine (thanks Jen!) just sent me a link to a New York Times article about the American Writer’s Museum, which opens in Chicago on May 16, 2017. Very excited to visit the museum during my stay in Chicago for the Urban Sketchers Symposium ...

You Never Know

Something I always tell my students is, “you never know.” As in, you never know what making art and putting it out there in the world will create in your life. About two years ago, I received an email from a man named Josh. He had written a poem ...

Robb Report Insider Secrets

I was commissioned to illustrate a series of “insider secrets” for the May issue of The Robb Report. The Robb Report is a luxury lifestyle magazine and each time I work for them I’m given glimpses into what real money can buy. It’s always fun ...

WALL STREET JOURNAL

I had a really fun job land on my board last week, an editorial illustration for the Wall Street Journal’s Off Duty section. The article was about the debate over which wine is superior, that of a single vineyard, or a blend. Here are the 2 sketche ...

COULD YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR?

Taking stock of all that happened last year, one project refilled the well with the unexpected. On the heals of the Mystic show I jumped at the chance to return to one of my formative creative passions and see if it still caused the same sparks it al ...

HOPES AND PRAYERS AND LEGAL AID

These have been busy times for reportage illustrators, as it seems like every day since the inauguration is a new change of policy and a new protest in response. Here in NYC, there have been many protests in response to the 90 day travel ban on 7 Mus ...
