Eustace Tilley Contest

This is my entry for the 4th annual Eustace Tilley Contest for the New Yorker—a magazine I really love. This drawing is dedicated to Joa, who bought me my subscription to the New Yorker, and also Marta, who encouraged me to enter their contest.
UPDATE: I did not win, but I am still happy I drew this!

Save the Jackalopes

© 2009 Shirt.woot.com
The National Jackalope Wildlife Reserve in Utah contacted me to create an illustration to be used to represent the fine work they are doing in preserving this rare species. Less than 600 Jackalopes live on the reserve and they roam over 400 acres. Just kidding.
