I haven’t posted much recently, but that’s not because I haven’t been drawing! There’s a lot of stuff in the works. This one is for a wonderful article by Jose Nateras at F Newsmagazine about the year he spent listening to the Waitress soundtrack. It’s 100% digital which is new territory for me. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out!
Broadway is the bright beating heart of the NYC’s performing arts scene. No visit to New York is complete without experiencing the rousing entertainment available in Midtown Manhattan’s Theatre District, where dozens of historic venues stage bold new musicals, long-running hits and fascinating dramas every night of the week. See our Guide to Broadway for all the info you’ll need when visiting. [Photo: Kate Glicksberg for NYCgo.com]
