political illustrations
I'm delivering this one in the morning to Peter, owner of the Bipartisan, the newest cafe in my neighborhood. Peter came up to me while I was working on an illustration in his cafe over a year ago and hired me to do an illustration of famous leaders eating pie together. This is my second piece for the cafe, with a different subject: famous assassins. It's not my usual style, but I enjoyed working more realistically with cross-hatching, and the piece fits in perfectly with the propaganda and other political art that decorates the Bipartisan Cafe.
Great stumptown coffee, too, and pie, if you are ever in need of something sweet in the Mt. Tabor neighborhood, SE Portland.
