Marriage, School and HIV in Africa

For Columbia University's School of Public Health magazine.

Obviously I had a favorite rough...

The story was on how being in a intact marriage and being in school protects from HIV in Africa (Uganda)

Canada and USA to merge

Possible merger of Canada and the USA in a single currency union EU style or even more.
For the Wall St. Journal.

Article was titled "North-American Union" so I explored broader that just currency.

I tried just straight ballpoint pen with a little digital color, but it just wasn't working as well as my usual gouache style, so I repainted the clothes that way.

Double Dutch

Full page illustration for Holland Herald the inflight magazine of KLM Royal Dutch Airlines.

 Subject was how success at chess has more to do with practice than intelligence. 

This was the spot on the next page.

In the magazine.

"Personal Debt" For Dutch bank De Lage Landen

Here's the layout really, really small (they didn't want the article readable since it's an internal magazine and has sensitive information)

Foreign Policy Magazine

Headline to work with was: The military’s Chicken Littles want you to think the sky is falling. Don’t believe them: America has never been safer.

They ended up going more the budget cut route. But I did have fun with the headline.

White House/Kremlin Hotline

2014 calendar for the Progressive. I got the month of August.

August 30 1963 - the White House/Kremlin ‘hot line’ installed, after the near disaster of the Cuban Missile Crisis.

I thought B would be picked, but I was pleasantly surprised, thanks Nick!

Cow's Milk for Babies

 Here's a quick one for the Wall St. Journal Health section on the debate of cow's milk for babies.

Holstein cows have such graphic possibilities I knew this was going to be a fun job. Thanks Pete!

Standford redesign by Pentagram

Pentagram (the NYC office), just redesigned Stanford's School of Business Magazine.

I always feel honored and pressure on a redesign, because they are putting alot of trust in you.

The editors were pleased apparently, because they requested me for the next issue.

This one was about working from home vs. the office.

 I added some color to their favorite roughs to help them pick.

Thanks Shigeto!

Here's the cover of the magazine (paper illustration by Owen Gildersleeve) which I thought turned out great!
