Grub Street
Founded in 1952, Grub Street is Towson University’s literary journal. Published annually, Grub Street features fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, and visual art. I was the sole designer of volume 69 and worked alongside a classroom of editorial staff to arrive at the final concept.

My Role
I illustrated and designed this first concept for the magazine cover. The editorial staff wanted a surreal and whimsical work of art paired with a simplistic type. However, after a last-minute directional change, a different work of art was selected.
