every once in a while i get a request by the terrific art director Irene Gallo at TOR books to illustrate one of the short stories showcased on TOR.COM.

this time it was for a short story called The Cockroach Hat : A literary love story written by Terry Bisson

it is quite a fun little read that crack you up on your most ironic day.

here are some of the submitted sketches and the final piece.

it’s always a delight to work with Irene.
