Perfect Storm / Valentine's Day Print

The original drawing was pitched as a NYer cover and wasn't used (blogged here), and I wanted to see where it would go with actual skin. It's a metaphor for intimacy:  two bodies in a warm vessel sailing through space while the world outside is slowly being covered with ice.





 

Perfect Storm is a Valentine's Day themed limited edition print. It goes on sale this morning here.

solving it IS the problem

A :: somedays you need to forget everything you know and go exactly the opposite direction of whatever your instincts are telling you. this was the case working on a piece for POZE magazine. AD Steve Morrison asked me to illustrate the concept of isolation, specifically for a story on the plight of HIV people in the poverty stricken south of the USA. the process started with me on auto pilot generating conceptual "solutions" for "isolation". Steve was there to suggest an alternative: just draw it, don't solve it.
