“The Gays” Contest: Runner-Up #2
By Gayle Kabaker
A beautiful, sensual image. A woman’s face is the quintessential magazine cover, so these two women work well here. I like that they’re about to kiss, so it makes you anticipate the next moment. The women feel both abstract and specific.
“Books” Contest: Runner-up # 8
By Gayle Kabaker
A lovely decorative image of reading with a cat.The pleasure is shared between both the reader and the cat and they have the same expression. It’s true that cats love it when you sit down to read.
My talented friend Gayle…
Every once in a while you create a piece that feels just right. This is that piece for me. Great art direction goes a long way. Chrissy Ortiz is a joy to work with
LA Magazine - an article about chefs in the LA area and the special herbs they grow for their use
Wall Street Journal Magazine (Smart Money) wanted a retro postcard feel for a story about investing in South America - love this kind of assignment
Far From Heaven
Poster for the Williamstown Theatre Festival. Inspired (for me) by the beautiful film
Preliminary sketch for a “painterly” portrait series. Trying to channel my inner John Singer Sargent
Beautiful piece of writing from AFAR Magazine about an unexpected and very romantic evening in Paris (are there any other kinds of evenings in Paris?)
Spot Illustrations for LA Magazine. One of my favorite AD’s. His design work is strong and simple and he really knows how to use my work. A pleasure to create for him.
