I've been working on these illustrations of Johnny Cash for an upcoming related project. The image and likeness of Johnny may end up looking different in the end, but I'm very pleased with the outcome thus far and wanted to share them. These obviously have the HATCH look (of which I am a huge fan of) and I couldn't help but connect this look, vibe and style with the undeniable CASH! More to come later . . .
Yesterday's Op-Ed on anti-Zionism. This was for the L.A. Times. A very touchy matter when it comes to creating a visual to support this idea. Anti-Zionism is the conviction that Israel, of all the world's countries, does not have the right to exist. I was asked to address both sides of the issue. We decided to use the menorah idea (sketch #2) as a springboard and keep this simple and to stay away from the whole militarism thing. In this article, Judea Pearl asks "Is anti-Zionism hate?" The final piece ran black and white. 10" x 15.5" collage & watercolor.
A big thank you goes out to Sarah, Tess, Meghan and Meghan of The Crew Design for their very kind post and endorsement about my work a few months back. Check out what they are up to. Thanks ladies - and all the best to you!
Working on a very cool "Johnny Cash related project" and cannot say any more at this point - except that I am very excited! More to come . . .
