First Kill. “Art for a Jennifer Fallon short story of the same name, published by Tor.com. For this assignment, I sent in three sketches: two I really loved and one that was OK. Irene picked the OK one! I had to make a lot of changes to turn it into something I liked. In the end, the piece was vastly better for it and showcased what was cool about the story to a degree that the other sketches hadn’t. This is the best thing about collaborating with my art directors: like good coaches, they can see what I can’t and push me to improve.”
