One of the reason's I wanted to name my blog Artist's Bloc is that, well, just like writer's block, I get stumped. But luckily, I have my trusty Design Editor Ted to help me out. (Everyone should have one of these in their newsroom.)
The story was about how there is a growing trend in new employees quitting their jobs, some almost as soon as they start. It's not that I couldn't come up with an idea, it's more or less I couldn't come up with a fresh new idea. See, I do some sort of employment/business illustration once or twice a week, and sometimes my ideas get stale. It's kinda like every year when a reporter has to cover Ground Hog's Day, it gets to you after a while.
But back to the point. Ted has helped me out numerous times with different ideas. Some I like, some I don't, but the important thing is, when he helps me brainstorm, it helps get my creative juices flowing.
Here are his sketches he came up.
By the way, Ted is a talented artist himself.
