Back to School!

Well, I guess illustrating a 'back to school' feature means that Summer is already over folks!  I wasn't that much of a fan of going to school but I do sort of miss the excitement that came with the purchase of new ring binders, pens and pencil cases in preparation for the new academic year. 
Anyways, last week I was commissioned by Tippi Thole at the Washington Post to illustrate the cover of the Local Living section of the paper. 
Tippi sent over a few samples of mine that she liked and asked for something bright and colourful, that included space for a larger heading and subheading.
As with most newspapers job it was quite a quick turnaround, but as a seasoned procratinator this can be very good for getting me focused.
Some of my work that the AD referenced.

Two of my sketches for the section cover. The second, being approved.
My final Illustration.
And the here it is print...
