I recently signed on as a freelance illustrator at elance.com and this was the first of two jobs that I bid on and won. The client wanted an illustration of herself in a stately den, sipping brandy with the ghost of Leona Helmsley. Immediately, I imagined Leona’s furry eyebrows framing her snarky face, enticing the viewers to join, while at the same time making them aware of her clear superiority to them.
You can check out my illustration in context (soon) at Leona’s Ghost.
I had a great time designing and illustrating this project, and my thanks go out to the client and to elance.com for making this all come together. I dare say I think I have a future in freelance illustration!
