Happy Monday,
Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been fortunate enough to get some tonally varied assignments. I love the challenge of switching gears from piece to piece once in a while.
Last week I got a call from Colin Tunstall at Esquire asking if I was available to do an illustration for a review of William Friedkin’s Bug. The review was about the up-and-coming actor Michael Shannon’s intense and frightening performance. 
  I tried to communicate this in the sketch and then on the final, implementing more texture than I usually do and compositionally trying to create the sense of anxiety that I got from watching the trailer, which you can view here.
also new this week: illustrations for the New Yorker and ESPN.
enjoy.

Frank, these are awsome!, I can’t wait for you to post the colored fight scene from esquire. I also think that the the illustration on top with the tormented figures is killer, the way you draw hands would make fechin jealous.
