New Work: "The Simple Life", Nashville Scene


The recent week-long absence of TWOB was due to the countless hours I spent on this new piece, the cover of Tennessee's biggest alt-weekly, the Nashville Scene (owned by Village Voice media.) The art director asked me to illustrate the celebrity exodus to Nashville using a famous Music Row landmark, Alan LeQuire's giant "Musica" sculpture. This cover is arguably the biggest exposure I've had in my career and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. You can read Tracy Moore's cover article here and also see the illustration in its original state, without the pastoral background.

UPDATE: There's also a story about this on theispot.com's Art News board.
