pc world: "e-readers"by *strongstuff

Digital Art / Vector / Other

i recently was contracted by pc world to create two spot illustrations for their october issue (on stands now!).

for the first one, i was asked to come up with a concept that visually conveyed the intense marketplace battle currently raging between all of the major e-readers. i chose to illustrate a fight poster, complete with a "main event" and an undercard. the image runs about 1/3 page.

it was a thrill to snag the issue off of the stands in the grocery store yesterday and see my work inside, but my two-year old was far less impressed. he was a tad too focused on a bambi book on a nearby children's rack to share in dad's moment. can't win 'em all.

This might be a really stupid question, but how does PC World and Wired know to hire you for jobs? Do you have work on a certain site they get to see? Just want to know how you get your stuff out there.
