They're definitely going big this year and having the benefit at the Lincoln Center. NBC's Lester Holt is the Master of Ceremonies and the show will feature performances by the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra. I'm not sure when tickets go on sale, but it'll be a great evening to say the least.
In other news, been busy these past couple of weeks. Picked up a couple of new clients and been entering a few illustration competitions. Notably, the Altpick Awards is having their open submissions and its reasonably priced with awesome prizes. I also entered the Swatch Young Illustrator Awards, which looks pretty fun. They only take personal work (no commercial work) and submissions had to be in pdf format. I included a bunch of stuff along with a resume at the end. Feel free to download it here:

So that's it for now.
This week went by much too quickly.
