Here are some gif illustrations I did for Tiffany & Co. for a piece titled “Singing for His Supper” and a little about the drama that followed. About a year ago I was asked by Tiffany & Co. to do some illustrations for a tablet format magazine they were putting out. They wanted a comic…
My fellow alumni Jeff McMillan recommended me as an artist to contribute a design for the up coming Long Beach Zombie Walk. I was given the restriction of only being able to use two colors to be printed on a black shirt, one of the colors definitely being white. Here’s what I came up with! …
