“Game: Blouses”

ESPN celebrates Prince's lifelong love of basketball, with stories from his Central High basketball coach, Sheila E., and Micki Free — who took part in the now-famous "Shirts vs. Blouses" game. I was approached by ESPN to create a series of illustrated animation sequences to depict some of these stories.

I could not have created this without the talented hand of Lester Chan who adapted my initial style frames and created a powerful lyrical drawing style which set the tone for the piece.
