Mark Burckhardt on the making-of his Texas Monthly cover

Over on Drawger there's an excellent behind-the-scenes look at this month's Texas Monthly cover (shown here) marking the 15th anniversary of Tejano singer Selena's tragic death. Illustrator Marc Burckhardt walks through the process from commission to drafts to completed cover (including subscriber versions without a UPC code--go TJ Tucker, Creative Director). Definitely worth the detour to Drawger this afternoon.
