Homepage bound

I meant to post this earlier in the week, but never got the time. I've occasionally done illustrations for banners on the homepage of the University of Toronto's Faculty of Law site. Here are a few of them:

For a celebration of the fifth anniversary of the David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights. They wanted it to include something evoking the idea of signing a constitution (like a quill pen). So this came together easily enough.

For a conference on cyber-bullying. Pretty self-explanatory. We've come so far since the days of "kick me" signs. Now we can torment each other in comments sections and Facebook posts!

For a new program on international law and business studies. They wanted the image to include the idea of finance or the stock market, with the financial center of a city.

Here's the homepage, which is at the moment featuring the David Asper Centre banner. The banners are only up temporarily, so if you look and it's no longer up, it would have looked a little something like this:

Thank you, Lucianna!

Jagged little pill

Remember that album? God, it always reminds me of middle school. Anyway, here's an illustration I did for Nexus, the alumni magazine of the University of Toronto's Law School:

The article mentions a donation Teva Canada, a pharmaceutical company, recently made to the school. The donation is to be used for a new program that focuses on patent law- something a pharma company has a lot of interest in. The editor wanted the illustration to focus on how patent law is universal. The pharmaceutical aspect is only one of the many applications of patent law. So I started thinking about drugs, its primary focus, and came up with a pillbox also holding some of the other areas: chemistry, technology, and genetics. You can download the issue here. Thank you, Lucianna and Levi!
