Illustration of Alex Carlson

Last night marked the last class related obligation i will ever have to college.  the communications department of the class of 2010 at Massart held there senior show/open house last night.  It was a good time, lots of people came, more then i expected.  I talked with many students, teachers, art directors, companies, and gallery owners about my own work and their businesses.  It made me very excited for the future ahead.  It seems so funny to me one of the best responses i get to my work are my bug eyed drooling cardboard cutouts.  I had  a man ask me if i had more then the lonely three at my table so not only did i add a page here dedicated to them, but enjoy below the expansive family I’ve created.  Most of them in that picture have found homes and many more have been added since that picture was taken.  My apartment is more theirs then mine!

to the illustration class of 2010 and all the students i’ll be heading off into the world with, congrats and i hope to see you around!
