I love this guy’s work. He’s older now though. Do you know him? Christopher Silas Neal? I first saw his work on Thumbtack Press a couple of years ago (a great site for affordable art, by the way). But he’s everywhere really. He does most of the illustrations for the New York Times Modern Love [...]
