Nashville Scene

Wow. Been a while. I've been a busy bee. Here's a recent illustration I did for the Nashville Scene about a crazy murderer who poised his wife and shot J.P. Morgan! Fun stuff.

Thanks to Elizabeth Jones for being so easy to work with and for the juicy story!

Rest in Peace, Maurice Sendak

Your books made me the person I am today.

On Location: The Q Train

Elizabeth Baddeley — Sun, 06 May 2012 15:24:14 +0000

Well, folks, this is it–my final SVA sponsored post! This was my final project for my drawing on location class. I intrigued by the subway stations in this city. They are all so different. Some are beautiful and bright and some are downright creepy! I wanted to draw some of the stations on my daily commute from Queens to Manhattan and I chose to juxtapose each station with what lies above (or, if you're up in Queens, below) the station. Same location, two different worlds. I'm planning on making this an ongoing project and would definitely like to do the whole Q-train route over the summer!

Hi kids! While the rest of you were huntin' for eggs, playing outdoors and eating ham, I spent my Easter weekend working on Honolulu Magazine's May cover! It's out now, so I can share it with you:

I also designed a little bug for the inside and a whole page article intro. I'll share a pic of that when I get my copy in the mail.

Banner Week

What. A. Week.

I'm sitting at home getting ready to go into the city for my LAST CLASS EVER! My drawing on location class meets today to show off our semester projects (details to come), eat pizza and say "adieu" to SVA. Prior to today I have celebrated turning another year older, hung my thesis show, discovered The Hunger Games and recieved in the mail first Communication Arts Illustration Annual. And look! A whole spread! I couldn't be more thrilled. I suppose when you give them 5 awkwardly shaped peices to work with, they HAVE to give you a spread...ha HA!

Clearly, Harry approves as well.

Coming Soon!

Thesis show time is almost upon us! Click here for more details.

Here is some lettering I created for huge vinyl to go on the wall. Can't wait to see it actual size!

That Time of Year!

Our thesis show is almost here! Below are the pieces from this year that I've decided to show. Also, note that my web site has been updated and spiffed up just in time for our grand finale!

Full Bloom.

I took a little break from thesis-panic-freakout-time last weekend to sit and decrompress in my favorite spot in Central Park, the Conservatory Gardens. I think I just might have picked the perfect weekend. The magnolia trees and tulips were in full bloom!

Happy Easter!

It's Easter, right? I seem to have heard rumblings of pretty dresses, fancy hats and glorious brunches happening this morning...as for me, spent the better part of the weekend doing some lettering. Well, at least the colors are springy.

Now somebody get this girl a Cadbury Egg STAT!
