Argonautica (Summer 2008)

In the summer of 2008, my friend Prof. Michael Barich of Kenyon College approached me about illustrating his book, a new translation of Valerius Flaccus's Argonautica (the classic tale of Jason and the Argonauts).  I worked closely with Prof. Barich on the illustrations, and the book is available for purchase via amazon.com or through the publisher's website.

Inspired by traditional Greek pottery and statuary, the cover is a post-it mosaic featuring busts of Jason and Medea in front of the Argo and the Golden Fleece.  The inside of the book features pen-and-ink illustrations and a map depicting the journey of the Argo.  I have a few copies that I can loan out on request if you'd like a closer look.
