Here’s to the artists
3 min readDec 30, 2017
I wrote a lot of words on Mashable in 2017. But I want to call attention to the artists that made some of my best and favorite stories shine brightest. They are the unsung heroes who often don’t get enough credit.
Vicky Leta, Bob Al-Greene, Ambar Del-Moral, Christopher Mineses, and Loris Ravera — they are the brilliant geniuses that came up with these wonderful illustrations for some of my stories this year.
They are the best of the best. I tip my hat to you guys. 🤘
