LIFE AS A FREELANCER









A few months back I came across the work of artist, illustrator, and comic creator N.C. Winters while surfing freelanceswitch.com. Freelance Freedom, a weekly comic strip by Winters, is uber-relatable for freelancers making a living through blood, sweat, tears & creativity (all the while working in their jammies).



















Beyond the strip Winters creates all kinds of stunning paintings, drawings . . .etc. Click here to see more of Winters' work.

ANOTHER HOT BEEF INJECTION?































I hope you all got the Simpsons reference. If you didn't, watch the BBQ episode- one of my favorites.

I digress....Welcome to the sterile-looking restaurant Hospitalis in Riga, Latvia where patrons are treated like patients and taken care of by the leggy waitresses in nurse uniforms. The food is served in operating room trays and fittingly the restaurant is owned by local doctors.
