This Is My Piece For The Silver Screen Society's February Exhibition Honoring The Very Funny Podcast

New piece for the NY Times about how educated and professionally-driven women have risen in men's tastes. Check out the article in the Sunday Review. Thanks to AD Aviva Michaelov!

I got NOBROW 6 in the mail the other day and it is awesome to see it in person. I cannot believe how much talent is packed into this thing! It's really a gorgeous book, and everyone should grab a copy.

Sometimes the little odds and ends from demos I give in my Digital Illustration class result in halfway-decent miniature drawings. Other times they are doofus beavers I guess.

(this was a request from my darling students so I refuse to be wholly blamed!)

I really love bats. I love bats so much.

Gant's food illustration is completely delectable. And his painting skills have always been a huge inspiration for me. Just gorgeous!

Today’s Lunch! Inspired by Kali Ciesemier’s blog Kali Eats as well as some delicious illustrations by Rebecca Bradley, and Kelly Lasserre.

Recipe: 

1 Avocado 1 small can of tuna 1tbsp of EV Olive Oil 1tbsp of Balsamic vinaigrette or of lime juice 1 large tomato, halved, or 1 small tomato

feeds one mildly hungry guy for lunch.

Halve and pit your avocado. Salt and pepper to taste and leave it to the side. Slice your tomato evenly, salt and pepper to taste and leave it to the side.

In a bowl, mix tuna, vinegar, and olive oil together, until all the tuna is coated. add a little salt and pepper (i love pepper). Use a spoon to heap the tuna into the pit cavity in your avocado halves. Dribble what’s left of the dressing in the bowl over the avocado and tuna. Serve the tomatoes next to it and enjoy!

Try adding walnuts, celery bits, golden raisins, or other tasty things to the tuna, or make a traditional tuna salad by using 2 tbsps of mayonaise rather than the O/V mixture. You can also substitute chicken for tuna.

Also, you if you want a tasty hors-d’ouevre for a party, mix the avocado meat in with the rest of the tuna dressing mixture, and serve on sliced tomatoes on top of crackers. They’re colorful, and tasty.

Really excited to share the final product with everyone with weekend #spx2015 #cauldronsandcasseroles

Reblogging my own post because GOBLIN. THE GOBLIN. IS IN BALTIMORE. TOnight. And I'm gonna see them and wear my own dumb shirt and it's gonna be the strangest, most rad time, and everyone? go ahead. be jealous.

"Suzy, do you know anything about…witches?"

Suspiria, a masterpiece by Dario Argento. This trippy, amazingly surreal horror film is the subject of my newest tshirt design for Pizza Party Printing's upcoming movie night at the Ottobar. They'll be showing not only Suspiria, but the 1989 horror, The Church (paired with a fucking metal shirt by Jimmy Giegerich), so if you’re in Baltimore at the end of the month, be there! Immerse yourself in blood and beer (and the music of the one, the only Goblin). It’s gonna be spooky.

The Suspiria shirt is up for sale now at Pizza Party! Pick one up while you can!

So.

Been awhile! I am still alive. Long story short, there have been a great deal of changes in my life. Some excellent, others requiring adaptation. I am a full-time freelancer now and I’m loving it. Illustration, design, and lettering are still my life blood. Expect more soon!

love,

Andrea
