01 → At Northwood and Demun
For this project I created a 6 spread booklet after sketching on site at a local coffee shop at the corner of Northwood and Demun Ave. in St. Louis, MO. Over the span of 3 weeks I frequently visited the shop, sketching the people and the architecture while also speaking with the regulars. I felt a great sense of community among them, and hoped to capture that in my booklet. Beginning in the early morning and spanning until the shop closes, this piece depicts a narrative for that special corner of the world. I scanned in my analog sketches, manipulating them in photoshop to tell a specific color story. Completed 3 years ago, this is still such a happy piece for me.
The original sketches.
