American Lawyer

Joyce Hesselberth

This illustration is for an article in American Lawyer's January issue about the growing percentage of women being made partners in law firms. A 30% average may not seem like much, but it's a big improvement from a couple decades ago.

The Little Red Hen for McGraw-Hill

Joyce Hesselberth

I've been working on a project for McGraw-Hill and I am thrilled to be able to show the first part of it. The entire project consisted of 3 children's books, and teachers' guides to accompany each book. The total number of illustrations weighed in at a hefty 156 pages!

The first story is a classic, The Little Red Hen, and true to the original, her friends still won't help her with baking that loaf of bread. Here are a few spreads from my version.
