Illustrating de Soto




I recently worked on three editorial illustrations for the Junior Scholastic monthly magazine which is published in the US. Each illustration is based loosely on scenes from a short play about the life of the Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto featured in the magazine.

I had heard of his name but didn't really know much about him. Very interesting character indeed. Check out this great painting, so much going on.

That would make a great comic strip of the life of de Soto.
