			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I spent August taking long weekends and keeping my workload light. I haven’t been updating the blog as regularly as I should. Ah, summer. But, September is here. It’s time for some self-promotion…better hop to it.</p>
<p>Here are the past four weeks of the <em>NYTimes</em> business travel spots – Flight attendants as refs in the war over carry-on bin space, business travel bouncing back, flight attendants give their perspective on air travel:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/BINS.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-530" title="BINS" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/BINS.jpg" alt="BINS" width="666" height="263" /></a></p>
<p>Last week I was supposed to have a sub but no one got that memo. In a pinch, I did one sketch with my daughter’s crayon while having breakfast in a Philadelphia hotel (and sent a photo from my phone) – the long-awaited 787 is coming:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/SKETCH.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-531" title="SKETCH" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/SKETCH.jpg" alt="SKETCH" width="504" height="288" /></a></p>
<p>Spot for a <em>Remodeling</em> article titled &#8220;Have I Got a Guy for You&#8221;, about giving rewards for referrals:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/REFERRALS.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-532" title="REFERRALS" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/REFERRALS.jpg" alt="REFERRALS" width="259" height="312" /></a></p>
<p>Two weeks of <em>Science Times</em> – the emotions of animals and science confirms the best way to pour your champagne:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/SHEEP.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-533" title="SHEEP" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/SHEEP.jpg" alt="SHEEP" width="666" height="252" /></a></p>
<p>For <em>The Washington Post</em>, how to be a great manager:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/MOUNTAIN.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-534" title="MOUNTAIN" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/MOUNTAIN.jpg" alt="MOUNTAIN" width="454" height="340" /></a></p>
<p>Half-page and a spot for <em>Women’s Health</em> on whether or not you need a financial therapist:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/THERAPIST.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-535" title="THERAPIST" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/THERAPIST-518x650.jpg" alt="THERAPIST" width="419" height="527" /></a></p>
<p>Not my usual thing but the art director requested this style based on <a href="http://chrisgash.com/?p=276">this illustration</a> I did for <em>The Washington Post</em>.</p>
<p>More to come next week!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After many years of seeing Mary Parson’s name around, we finally got to work together on a package for <em>The American Prospect</em>. The illustrations were for a special report on healthcare reform and the idea was basically OK, the bill is passed; now here is everything we have to do to make it work. The feature was running both inside the magazine and as a stand-alone supplement in another publication with the full-page opener being the cover for the latter…hmm, no pressure…</p>
<p>Here is the final:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/TATTOO_BLG.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-515" title="TATTOO_BLG" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/TATTOO_BLG.jpg" alt="TATTOO_BLG" width="454" height="380" /></a></p>
<p>And here is the supplement (with me pretending I’m casually reading it):</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/READING2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-522" title="READING" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/READING2.jpg" alt="READING" width="421" height="308" /></a></p>
<p>And here are the four spots that ran throughout the story:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/4_SPOTS.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-518" title="4_SPOTS" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/4_SPOTS-700x187.jpg" alt="4_SPOTS" width="630" height="168" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>June and July have been super busy so I’ll be playing catch-up with posting assignments for the next couple of weeks. First, this one for the <em>NYTimes</em> was about the transition from high school to college freshmen. I tried something a little different here and I was pretty happy with how it turned out. Unfortunately, the production people at the <em>NYT</em> got a little overzealous with the saturation so the version running online is way off…that drives me crazy:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/FRESHMEN.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-499" title="FRESHMEN" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/FRESHMEN.jpg" alt="FRESHMEN" width="291" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>I got the news that after nearly 8 years, the illustrated Jobs column at the <em>Washington Post</em> will be replaced with an advertorial. Here is what will be one of the last Jobs illustrations, about whether or not you should disclose your pregnancy during the interview process:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/STORK.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-500" title="STORK" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/STORK.jpg" alt="STORK" width="389" height="292" /></a></p>
<p>The past 2 weeks of Road spots for the <em>NYTimes </em>– travelers’ concerns about radiation from the new body imaging machines and how frequent flier award points are becoming increasingly worthless:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/2_BIZTRAV.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-501" title="2_BIZTRAV" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/2_BIZTRAV.jpg" alt="2_BIZTRAV" width="437" height="247" /></a></p>
<p>Science this week was about how an elastic band changes shape as it rolls more quickly (tough one):</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/ROLL.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-502" title="ROLL" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/ROLL.jpg" alt="ROLL" width="378" height="277" /></a></p>
<p>This was an interesting call from <em>Smart Money</em> – basically they were going to buy a piece of my stock, which looked more or less the same as this, but then realized the generic sampling of classified jobs I originally used wasn’t appropriate for a business magazine. So I changed the text in the job descriptions, and updated the rest of the drawing a little and dashed it off:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/JOBS.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-503" title="JOBS" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/JOBS.jpg" alt="JOBS" width="380" height="291" /></a></p>
<p>Finally a quarter-page for <em>Seattle Monthly</em> about the insanity of bank overdraft fees and the public’s poor money management skills, resulting in the $35 latte:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/LATTE.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-504" title="LATTE" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/LATTE.jpg" alt="LATTE" width="317" height="317" /></a></p>
<p>There are a few new items on <strong><a href="http://tiptopgash.tumblr.com">T</a></strong><strong><a href="http://tiptopgash.tumblr.com">ipTopGash</a></strong> as well, and more coming soon!</p>

Peter Morance, who just couldn&#8217;t be a nicer guy, not only surprised me by picking this sketch, but wanted the sketch to run as is.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While I wait to post some other recent assignments, here are last week&#8217;s <em>NYTimes</em> regulars&#8230;</p>
<p>On the Road was about difficulties for corporate travel managers to budget around airline hidden fees:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/FEES.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-481" title="FEES" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/FEES.jpg" alt="FEES" width="260" height="286" /></a></p>
<p>And just for last Tuesday I got moved off Observatory to do a spot about scientists who had discovered that protons are actually slightly smaller than originally believed &#8211; a revelation that could disprove some long-held theories:</p>
<p><a href="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/PROTON.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-482" title="PROTON" src="http://chrisgash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/PROTON.jpg" alt="PROTON" width="283" height="273" /></a></p>
<p>UPDATE:  It looks like the project to makeover Toothy for Emergency Dentist 24/7 may be on hold indefinitely. Boo. And last month I mentioned two proposals to <em>NJ Monthly</em> &#8211; a one-off humor piece and another that would be a monthly illustrated column &#8211; sadly, I wasn&#8217;t as lucky this time. Next week I&#8217;ll post one of the rejects, the other I may just pursue on my own.</p>
