Yukkies!

Hope this example is not too vintage for you.
In 1991 I was asked to do an illustration for a magazine meant for yuppie-children, called 'Yukkies'...(What's in a name, right?)
The story to be illustrated was about shoplifting candy. My drawing was deemed not fit for the magazine (because of the tobacconist's hairdo?) and another illustrator was asked to do the job, apparently with my work as a back-up...

  3. I completely agree with the others: your is absolutely much cooler Peter. I hope they've at least paid you the full price for your work.

    Aafke, om Clogwork internationaal toegankelijk te houden prefereer ik Engels als voertaal, maar af en toe een Nederlandse reactie is geen probleem.
