Breakfast of Champions

In Scene Magazine today is a little illustration I did for them some months back. Every year, they do a Best of Cleveland issue. I've been lucky enough to work this, their highest-profile issue of the year, a couple of times and even won an award for it. This year's theme was a kind of Wheaties/Breakfast of Champions thing. They needed some artwork for the back of the cereal box that they gave to award winners and called me.

The final image features a lot of Cleveland items, including newspeople Dick Goddard, Paul Orlowski, Denise Dufala and Sharon Reed, Yankees fan LeBron James, Iron Chef competitor Michael Symon, Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson, The Rock Hall, the Veteran's Memorial Bridge, The Terminal Tower, Slider and, of course, orange construction barrels.

I really like the way this came together. The image is running in Scene this week as well, so if you'd like to see it, pick up a copy.
