Lecture at University of Buenos Aires

Last night,  I was invited by Julio Ferro to give a lecture to 250 graphic design students from the University of Buenos Aires.  I talked about my experience as an art director, how my style developed and my creative process for coming up with editorial illustration ideas. I had a great time and really enjoyed the 30 minute Question and Answer session afterwards.  The Faculty and Students were very friendly and had great questions. Here are a few links to some cool projects students and faculty are working on.
