Bump - Utne Reader Illustration

New editorial illustration for a really depressing but beautifully written article.

Technical pen, acrylic ink and a little marker 14"x14"

We can't talk about the articles because they have yet to be published in the Utne Reader.

Remodeled!

Yes!

The blog is now more exciting and will probably become WAY more exciting-er!

Bear with me while I make a few changes.

If you do, I will reward you with pretty new screen prints I have yet to show! :)

Here is a map of the most haunted places in Minnesota that I did for editorial illustration.
It's fairly large, but it's done in pen, watercolor, acrylic ink and markers.


Enjoy!

Teddy Roosevelt is Awesome

Technical pen, acrylic ink, watercolor
First two are put into format, the last two are the pieces alone.






Enjoy!

HEY NOW

Check it. First page of the Variety section of the Star Tribune, on Labor day.

Aw yeah.

I got quoted and everything. I gotta say this has been one of the best days of the year for me.

Go online and see everyone else's great work!

Holy Cow.

It's been a long time.

I mean, since I've even had anything worth posting on here.

Summer was fantastic, but I'm so happy to be working away again!

Here is my newest illustration for Editorial Illustration.

The project was to create an image based off of a specific area of the State fair.

Four finished pieces will be printed in the Star Tribune along with a little article about us artists and the state fair. Otherwise, all of them will be online, which is super awesome! For my "topic" I chose the Miracle of Birth Center. I chose that topic because on the day I went to the first day of the fair with my Mum and brothers, we got to witness the birth of a baby calf in the first hour of being there!

So I took a lot of pictures. Mostly of kids. I think it's so funny to see them watching these sort of processes go on.

Very intriguing and kind of funny.

Anyhoo, here's the piece! 11"x11" pen, acrylic ink, and markers.

Enjoy!

Love,

Mary
