Say Cheese

We can only assume that Chelsey Holeman's a cheese fanatic. Or works in a deli? Either way, she sketched this enthusiastic ode to dairy as what she wore today, and Fitz Fitzpatrick took it to final, giving us all a laugh. Well-played, folks!

Eye for an Eye

Always with a touch of Macabre, Wylie Beckert (who you might recognize from our Mixtape Project, despite this being her first swap) created this eye-catching (a-thank-you) final based on the sketch by Angela Rizza.



Darkness and whimsy are the chief inhabitants of artist Wylie Elise Beckert's illustrations. The simultaneously grim and playful images she creates are distinguished by vivid characters and an emphasis on storytelling, offering a window into a world that is both sinister and inviting.
