My task: choose a podcast and illustrate it. I chose to illustrate the podcast "In Dog We Trust," which was originally broadcasted in March 2000. This episode is about the role that our pets play in our lives, telling stories of cats, dogs, and even a three-legged armadillo named Otis. Check it out here!
In addition to the illustrations, I was asked to recreate the website to match my style and/or color scheme. For the desktop view, I modified the colors along with some stylistic changes. For the mobile version, I redesigned the site to make it easier for the viewer to find the information they need while keeping the experience simple.
