I updated the portfolio a bit last night, including some new illustrations for Jamie Magazine. I get to do these illustrations monthly and I love doing them. This one is a particular favorite— I think I was trying to channel old fruit packaging/branding. You know? I miss when things didn’t have to always be realistic— food packages often skew one way in America. Same with science books for kids— there used to be more abstract/stylized work that I know as a kid I got excited by. I wish we’d take some more risks.
