in the beginning....

Illustration project - humor piece to accompany a story about rude behavior in public places. I chose a restaurant setting (can't illustrate every possible scenario) - most of these incidents have happened to me in a restaurant at one time or another.... I'm sure there are zillions of possibilities, but I want to keep this simple and legible.

This is my thinking-out-loud doodle and just represents a concept sketch...
Sometimes I show these to clients, depends on if they are already familiar with my work. If not, I need to go to more complete comp art for that kind of presentation.

if it is legal, I may try to post stages of this as it goes to final art. I don't anticipate it being overly complex. I find that often a more serendipitous (is that a word) feel to finished art has more character and carries the "essence" of the message better than tightly noodled meticulous rendering does. If the concept doesn't grab it, all the polish in the world won't make it work.
