Illustrations from Academic Publications

If you remember one that you'd like to see here, please drop me a line.

a simple gag: the old "evolution of man" series of drawings from hunched-over chimp to upright modern man and on to modern man who sits hunched over at a computer. I've added upright man walking and using his phone, and then projecting from his phone so his ancestors can see.

detailed line drawing of a smartphone in use: held in left hand while the screen is touched by the first finger of the right hand. The screen is almost totally covered by the right hand.

A redrawing of a famous photo of a police sargeant casually pepper spraying into the faces of peacefull, sitting protesters. His actions became a popular meme.
