Class Warfare
This a really quick turnaround that I did yesterday for The Weekly Standard. I started the job Thursday but late Thursday night the idea was changed enough that I had to start again from scratch first thing Friday morning. The final art was due by the end of my work day on Friday.
I decided to keep things simple, tried to focus on the character and keep my color only in places I want the viewer to look first.
I really could have used more time to work on the guillotine, but for a quick editorial piece, I'm happy with the end result. It was a lot to do in one day . . .

I'm a little too libertarian to normally pick up the Weekly Standard, but I always search it out to see who's done the art; you, Tom or Gary.
It's unfortunate that more editors don't realize the full value of aesthetic appeal. It's not as if it's an unknown that people gravitate towards the visually appealing, yet so many in the print publication business choose to scrimp on the art first before anything else in their budget.
Sigh
His illustration was great, Jason!
Even with little time to develop the project, the end result was very good.
It would be good here in Brazil, we could have publications that use it as large and beautiful illustrations in "The Weekly Standard".
I believe it works like this, enrich the content of the magazine and the exercise encourages more reading.

Awesome illustration, awful text. That's really a waste. :-(

You really never fail to satisfy my craving for qualit art and illustration! Even a priece that was rushed is great visual inspiration!
