“Welcome To The Swamp” cover

Miami New Times

“Ranking Miami-Dade’s most corrupt cities.”

For this Miami New Times cover illustration, I drew inspiration from the political satire of Thomas Nast’s 19th-century cartoons, highlighting the influence of corruption and greed in politics. And what swamp-dwelling creature symbolizes Miami’s murky waters better than a gator, right?
