There was a time... When an old lady was young, when towers fell, when smoking was cool, when a father cried holding his new born, when a football team had an upset, when troops came home, when people came together to build a home for someone in need, when friends got together for frisbe, when a high school band had their first gig, and there was a time when imaginations were limited by technology. It is my passion to capture these times, and to bring the images in my head to reality.

Big 12 Vacancy
This is the final edit of my Big XII neon sign illustration. I went out in downtown Manhattan to find a brick wall that would look good for this package. I tweaked my original edit to have an illuminated X because at this time there are only officially two teams leaving the conference. I also reduced the illuminating features on the unlit part of the sign (thanks for the critique Jon). The paper didn't end up using this edit but I really wanted to see how it would have looked so I redesigned the front page with my illustration instead.
What the paper had...
What they could have had...
