Mr. Frotheringham
July 1st, 2010 by Evan
The first time I saw a Mr. Frotheringham illustration was on the cover of Mudhoney’s “Piece Of Cake” CD in 1992. I imagined Ed having a half broken, leaky pen that gave him his beautiful thick/thin line quality. His work inspired me to experiment with pen and ink more as well as color blocking. Fast forward to today and Ed is still working in Seattle for big clients like the New Yorker, Washington Post, Men’s Journal, Scholastic and many others. If it says “Mr. Frotheringham”, you know it’s quality!
