Baseball Cards for AEG Live Concerts

Once again, this summer I'm illustrating and designing baseball cards for select AEG Live concerts at the Mann Center in Philadelphia. Each card will portray the musician or band as baseball players and pay tribute to specific baseball cards throughout the years. These are the first three but there are many more to come. Also if you go to the concerts you will be handed one at the gate!

Grantland.com - Evan Fournier/NBA Draft

I was contacted yesterday by Juliet Litman at Grantland/McSweeney's to do a really quick turnaround illustration for this morning's front page of Grantland.com. The story is about french basketball player Evan Fournier and the declining number of Europeans in the NBA today. Below are the rough sketches submitted before deciding on the final concept.

Grantland/McSweeney's - Killed Piece

A while back I was contacted to do another illustration for Grantland/McSweeney's. This time it was for a piece about the AFC/NFC championship games. It consisted of realtime emailing during the games between various writers for the site. There were a lot of components to illustrate but in the sketches I zeroed in a few. After taking one of the sketches to final they decided they wanted just Steven Tyler so I drew a bigger Stevie. After all this, unfortunately the piece was killed. These things happen sometimes and I at least now I have a grotesque Steven Tyler illustration to show you fine folks :)

Hollywood Reporter - Michael Bloomberg

This is as fun as it gets! Michael Bloomberg listed his top 10 reasons why films should shoot in NYC and I was lucky enough to get asked to illustrate the piece for The Hollywood Reporter. Below are my sketches too. I'm extremely happy that the Taxi Driver sketch was selected. Thanks Shanti for such an amazingly fun assignment!

The Hollywood Reporter - Hacked Phones

Another fun assignment from Peter at The Hollywood Reporter about hacking celebritys' phones to find nude photos.

Here's another fun assignment I just illustrated for art director Peter Curry at The Hollywood Reporter. It's of Reed Hastings, founder of Netflix. Below are all of the sketches I drew before we decided on the final concept and composition.

Flex Magazine - Occlusion Training!!!!!

I recently illustrated this piece for Brant Louck at Flex Magazine. The article for the March issue is about occlusion training which involves tying bands around muscles to deprive them of blood flow while weight training. It's always fun working with Brant because he pushes me to take everything from muscles to expressions a step further.
