Thorny Process

A little spot illustration for PlanAdvisor. A story about getting rid of a pension plan can be a prickly indevor. Much thnks to SooJin for giving me a chance to do one of these little spots. Always such a strong group of creative folks she gets to work articles on in the magazine. Somehow it almost seems like a bit of a compition to try to at least ciome up to her standards for these illutrations. Thumbnails pretty straight forward, lot's of prickly choices... Always a pleasure working with SooJin, and this time was no different. LIttle prickly friend seemed a perfect match. I was thinking of one of those Victorian portrIaits so a few spectators would also help stage it and make the prickly little guy look bigger. All Images © Bill Mayer 2012.
