very lucky to have had the chance to collaborate once again with a couple of pieces with The New Yor

very lucky to have had the chance to collaborate once again with a couple of pieces with The New Yorker.

themes have been challenging, as always, and eventually great source of fun. 

you can read the first piece by Joan Acocella on tap dance -Up From The Hold- here.

here is the second piece titled How To Live An Alternative-Comedy Life Style by Mike O’Brien, in this week issue.

the two columns I was asked to make art for are different for the themes they approach as well as for the general tone the writers use. same goes for the style and the way I draw characters, things and stuff. I don’t have two different styles but I like to use little nuances that drive the viewer into a more mature or slightly humorous mood when they look at them. or at least this would be my intention.

sketches are an extra just to show a little behind the scenes, for those -like me- curious and a bit nerdy when the subject happens to be illustration.

hope you’ll enjoy these. if you’re interested in moe sketches, work in progress and sneak peeks just press here and now! in other words follow me on instagram: @simonemassoni
