Talking Chop 2010 Annual
Freelance

I'm an avid baseball fan, and my team of choice is the Atlanta Braves. Talking Chop is an online Atlanta Braves community where fans interact and communicate with other Braves fans, that I happen to be a member of.

The owner of the site contacted me when it came time for him to release his 2010 edition of the website's annual print edition, and I was pleased to contribute.

One of the challenges of the artwork was the simple fact that being an independent publication, there were restrictions in actually using any identity aspects of the Atlanta Braves themselves without express written consent from the organization.

Utilizing stock photography, I went with the simple, yet innocent approach of the baseball in the grass, much like an analogy for the game of baseball itself.
