For Fast Company

November 7, 2017

For a story about a young woman who came out as a bisexual at her workplace after which she was constantly "corrected" and stopped from expressing herself by her colleagues and seniors. The story is part of a digital feature that features 7 stories on "What it is like to be out at work in 2017". Each story was illustrated by a different illustrator using a color from Pride colors.

So the initial direction for the assignment was to use Orange hue and include the workplace in sketches. After the sketch was approved, I made different color versions of the final piece.

I also had fun drawing the view of buildings from the windows which is how the night view was of glittering Freedom Towers from my studio window back when I was a grad student at SVA (those sleepless nights!).

Many thanks to creative director Florian Bachleda who is always a pleasure to work with.
