Society of Illustrators

These three were accepted into the Society of Illustrators annual exhibition this year. The first two, "Labyrinth" and "Ajax" will be in the editorial and book show, and the third, the Neer's cd cover, will be in the advertising and institutional show. When I did each one of these I experimented quite a bit to get to the final, so it is especially nice to get recognition for work that is new territory for me.

Thanks Robin, Francis and David. That middle one was done late-night in the office at the Illustration Academy this summer. Thanks for the inspiration! Give a call when you get to NY.
