A City Girl in Hot Water

Here's a new spot for Las Vegas Weekly. It accompanies a great story by Leslie Ventura about her unenthusiastic trip to a hot spring in the desert. You can read the story HERE or even flip through this week's entire outdoors-themed issue at http://www.ifoldsflip.com/title/6882

I had some fun in doing the sketches trying various angles on the specific image they wanted for the spot.
Thanks to Corlene Byrd for gig!

Hiding in Plain Sight

Last week, I was contacted by AD Ryan Olbrysh over at Las Vegas Weekly to do an illustration for an article about fugitives fleeing and being captured in Vegas.
Ryan had a fun idea of Vegas icon Vegas Vic chasing down and apprehending a fugitive. I played around with this idea in the sketches (below) and we agreed on the first sketch - a 70's cop show-esque action shot with Vic, in his neon uniform, hot on the heels of a particularly gangster-looking fugitive.
Thanks again Ryan for a fun assignment!
