Martha Rich food illustrations for Johns Hopkins Magazine

Martha Rich was commissioned by Johns Hopkins University to create some of her fun food illustrations for their Johns Hopkins Magazine.  Martha's yummy illos were used in an article titled "From Farm to Plate to Policy" about the food reform movement and the demand for healthy sustainable foods in all levels of society around the world.  Very interesting article, and Martha's work really livens up the pages!

Tom Jester's Ant Revolution

Here is a new illustration that Tom Jester just completed, titled Ant Revolution.  It's an experimental piece in which Tom used some new techniques and worked in some 3D elements.  As for the inspiration for the subject matter, here's what Tom had to say:

"It's an environmental statement piece. It shows the destructive nature of humans in contrast to insects' ability to work together and adapt to any adversity. While humans seem to be on a path of self destruction, ants will always focus on survival and what is good for the group as a whole. They operate as a unified entity, collectively working together to support the colony without corruption, a trait that humans could use to learn from. Ants will almost certainly will be around long after we are gone."

Steve Moors illustrates a Prairie Chicken

Fridays are synonymous with cocktails, and here's an interesting one that is certainly not for the faint of heart.  Steve Moors illustrated his version of a drink named Prairie Chicken, which combines gin with an egg.  This is the latest contribution to our ongoing illustrated cocktail blog, and we find Steve's illustration to be much more appetizing than the cocktail itself!
