Color of the Blues
I was commissioned by LaLouisiane magazine to do a series of four illustrations. Each illustration would represent a new course being offered by the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. The magazine selected a few of the new/interesting courses to which students have taken a shine.
The one above is for The Color of the Blues, which covers the influences of Blues music across our culture. I would have loved to have taken that course!
Featured above is Robert Johnson making a little pact with a certain character of ill repute.

ReplyDeleteHow delightful - I presume you have seen Brother, Where art thou?, in which a character sells his sould to the devil because "I wasn't using it". So nice to get an assignment one really enjoys.
