Penfield Children’s Center invited Penelope Dullaghan to do a poster this year for their annual Croquet Ball. Past poster illustrators have included Chris Buzelli, Chris Neal, Sam Weber, Josh Cochran, Red Nose Studio and James Jean. You can see a few here. And a few more here. Each year, artists are commissioned from around the world to bring their unique vision to the event’s promotional posters. The caliber of talent is widespread, from international artists to local students at the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design, and each artist brings a distinct perspective and enviable talent to the continuing theme of “Make an Impact. Have an Impact.” The donated illustrations are auctioned off at the event.

Penelope concludes, “I was honored to be a part.”

For the second year in a row, Greg LaFever was asked to inspire the runners of the Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon with his colorful and fun loving illustrations. Art director Arlan Graham wanted this years pig theme to recall the “Pied Piper” of childhood lore. Greg designed a caricatured image complete with runners clothing and antiquated leather flying headgear, parading in the sky over the gathering of excited runners below. Arlan praises Greg’s continuing success by saying, “I met with the ‘pig people’ this morning and they just love your illustration. They said that this race has a reputation as one of the most fun marathons to run because of the fans and entertainment along the course. Great job!”
