Matt Dawson is a top-notch illustrator and is currently working on a book project I’m involved with. I came across Matt via the image below (fans of A Confederacy of Dunces will get the reference) and I knew immediately that here was a man of “taste and decency”. If you want a highly responsive, well-judged and artful chap to add class and distinction to your project, this is your man. No flat, schlocky, cliched or corporatized aesthetic here! Now when Matt says that there will “hopefully” be a book cover he’s being way too modest – this is what he’s been engaged to do and having seen the preliminary sketches, things are shaping up beautifully – it will make for a lovely poster as well. Stay tuned for more details as they emerge about this project. Suffice to say, New Orleans plays a pivotal role in this project.
