]]> Illustration for UTNE reader about the Nuclear Industry distributing material to school children about the benefits of nuclear energy. Stephanie Glaros, AD.

To give you an idea what the art director receives at the sketch stage, here are the sketches for the article. Whenever you get a blurb like, “Nuclear industry tries to convince children nuclear energy is cool.”, you know it is going to be a fun day of sketching.

]]> Cover done for Environment Yale magazine in 2007.

The editor, David DeFusco, sent a rough scribble of a globe face with water being squeezed from the head. Sometimes it is hard to see the idea through someone else’s scribble. Occasionally, it becomes more difficult to come up with a solution. Not this time. The Environment Yale cover is one of my favorite covers.
