Cranked out this piece over the weekend. It's about Ron Popeil, the man who pioneered the infomercial and brought us such ground-breaking inventions as Spray-On Hair, the Pocket Fisherman, and the Showtime Rotisserie. My angle was that he kind of evolved the entrepreneurial method of sales from door to door to the wider-reaching medium of television. I'll get some feedback today, so we'll see what happens . . .
New piece. Needs a few tweaks, but here it is as of now. It's about Markus Frind, the dude that invented PlentyOfFish.com, the biggest dating website in the country. He makes tens of millions of dollars a year working like ten minutes a day. Ridiculous.
Sorry for the lack of posts recently. I was with VCU attending a conference in Qatar. Here is the latest piece that I've finished. The article, from Playthings magazine, is titled, "A Strange Appeal." It talks about the surprising popularity of science and nature toys in today's market. Enjoy.

Article about the recent influx of African players into Major League Soccer.
Here is the finished piece.
Here is the new piece I'm working on. It's an illustration of an article about Sir Alex Ferguson, manager of Manchester United in the English Premier League, and Rafa Benitez, manager of Liverpool. Essentially, Rafa recently lashed out at Fergie in a press conference, and the author explains that getting into mind games with Fergie, who is by far the most successful manager in English soccer, is counter-productive because he will always come out on top.
This is the sketch that I'll be working from.
