Hugh Illustration » Blog Archive » Shakespearean ABC Book for Grown-Ups!

Last year I was busy for several months, working on the artwork for a picture book for Gibbs Smith Publisher. The book is called Y is for Yorick: A Slightly Irreverent Shakespearean ABC Book for Grownups, which is a pretty accurate title. The author is Shakespeare scholar Jennifer Adams, and her text is both funny and informative. Each letter is matched with a character from one of Shakespeare’s plays, which was both enormous fun and pretty intimidating. (It’s not every day you have to illustrate the work of the greatest author in the English language, right?) Here are some of the spreads: You can get a copy on Amazon, or look for it in your local bookstore! Going local: Small Business Saturday event in Scottsdale. By Max Jarman - Nov. 24, 2011 06:43 PM The Arizona Republic After gobbling up doorbuster deals at the big chains on Black Friday, the rest of Arizona's retailers and credit-card issuer American Express are suggesting that consumers spend some dollars at locally owned business on Small Business Saturday.

American Express, which hastily organized a Small Business Saturday event for the first time last year, has devoted considerably more attention to the event this year. Mary Ann Fitzmaurice Reilly, American Express senior vice president, is optimistic that Small Business Saturday will take its place with other powerhouse holiday-shopping days that now include Black Friday and Cyber Monday. "Last year was about claiming the day, and this year it's about putting it in the hands of small businesses and making it their own," she said.

Fitzmaurice Reilly said that last year small businesses witnessed a 28 percent jump in sales on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Shop local events When: Nov. 26. Vampire Wear Jewelry and Clothing for IMMORTALS Blood Vials,Tribal Designs,Fangs,Tattoos.
