A couple of years back, the now Toronto Mayor (Rob Ford) said ”Roads were built for buses, cars and trucks.

A few weeks ago I produced two illustrations for an article in the Harvard Business Review. Here are the spot and feature for this article, which you can see here “The Paradox of Excellence”.

For these two illustrations the art director wanted to keep the palate simple. In the feature we went with a simple flat colour, like in much of my work.
