The project

The brief

A weekly column, a tight deadline and a sensitive subject. The art needed to be warm, a little funny and never mean.

How it was made

Three roughs went over on the first morning. The editor picked the quietest one, and I pushed the black until the room felt crowded.

The result

The column now opens with my art every week, and readers write in to guess the next couple.
