Happy to have work included in the 2021 Communication Arts Illustration Annual along with so many great illustrators and the beautiful cover by Ryo Takemasa.

The piece was for the ESPN 30for30 Michael Vick documentary and art directed by Eric Paul. The goal was to include a portrait with some narrative nod to the film's arc. I've included the time-lapse process of early thumbnail idea sketches done in Procreate on my iPad, essentially trial-and-error experimentation with possible designs.
Thanks again Eric and all the judges.
