Les Parisiens - Vivien and Brian
Tuesday, October 08, 2013

Part of my people of Paris project. I met Vivien and Brian on the number 7 Metro at Crimée station. Vivien fights everyday to succeed at his passion, dance. He loves humanity and loves meeting people and learning about them, their passions, and culture. Vivien et Brian dans le métro ligne 7, station Crimée. Vivien se bat tous les jours pour réussir sa passion, la danse. Il est amoureux de l'être humain et aime rencontrer les gens, apprendre à les connaître, partager leurs passions, leurs cultures."

Radio Times Father Daughter Mayor

In today's Radio Times (UK). TV comedy-drama writer Paul Dornan turns his hand to radio for the first time with this warm-hearted seaside yarn about disenfranchised youth. Unemployed graduate Hannah returns to sleepy Westport. She needs a job, but the only one going is as mayor, and her dad Geoff - a wily, loveable but typically complacent local councillor - is tipped to get that. But then an issue arises that greatly affects Westport's young people. It's the closure of the Dome, their scruffy end-of-pier social centre. Geoff refuses to include the closure issue in his mayoral campaign. His assistant has persuaded him that the core voters are middle-aged, with very different priorities! Now Hannah, who loves her Dad, but is desperate for a job, is faced with a dilemma. Knowing it might ruin Geoff's career and hard-won reputation, should she run for the job of mayor against him? Producer/ Peter Kavanagh for the BBC

Les Parisiennes - Clara au Bar Ourq
Wednesday, September 25, 2013

Another one for my Parisians project. I met Clara at Bar Ourq along Canal l'Ourq. She says her hair is from her Bretangne (north west region in France) and Algerienne origins. She loves Bollywood dance and wants to go to India to study. She loves to climb trees (Oak and Mimosa are her favorite) and rocks, walk on the rooftops of Paris at night, and walk barefoot on hot pavement. J'ai rencontré Clara au "Bar Ourq" le long de canal de l'Ourq. Selon delle sa chevelure particulière vient de ses origines Bretonnes et Algériennes. Elle est passionnée par la danse Bollywoodienne et aimerait partir en Inde pour apprendre. Elle aime danser d'une manière générale, se balader sur les toits de Paris la nuit, grimper dans les arbes (sa préfères les Chenes et les Mimosas), et sur les rochers et marche pieds nus sur les goudron chaud.

Version Finale - Les Parisians - Catharina
Wednesday, August 07, 2013

I meet some of the people in my Parisians series on the street and get their email and later ask them some questions. I finally did the hand lettering for Catharina's story. Catharina in front of cafe "Le Progress". Jacket by "Mimi's Beer". She was born in Germany and a few weeks later her family left for Paris. Her passion was horseback riding and she was winning all the jumping competitions but at 18 she had to choose between horses or studies and she chose studies. She was also a model and published a book in German about her experiences. Catharina devant le cafe "Le Progrès". Vest par "Mimi's Beer". Elle est née en Allemagne et quelques semaines plus tard sa famille part pour Paris. Sa passion était l'equitation et elle gagnait toutes les compétitions du saut, mais à 18 ans elle du choisir entre les chevaux et les études et elle choisi études. Elle était aussi modéle et a publié un livre en Allemand sur ses expériences.

Spring Ilustrations - Jason Raish
Tuesday, June 04, 2013

 


spot for golf magazine.  Its the monthly rules guy column, this one is about if it's ok to fix your club during play.  the answer was yes.  2 slight variations here.
 

 

cover of the op-ed page for the Boston globe some sunday.  It was my first time working for the Globe.  I had a chance 3 years ago but when they called I was just about to embark on an epic journey through the mountains of southern China so I could'nt do the the assignment.  This one is about the lack of theatre space for the growing and already huge theatre scene in Boston.  Lost color on the page, but that's a normal occurrence in the news biz.
 

 

spot for the wall street journal on some sunday.  It's about a non profit who deals with Health care gripes.
