GM Food

Illustration for Checkout Magazine about genetically modified/GM Food. I’ve always called this illustration ‘Tomatostein’

‘The Generation Gap’—article by Gerry Byrne. I wanted this image to have a whiff of creepiness, and mad-science about it. I suppose I had to get myself into slightly mad mood as I made it! (See more food scare illustrations here»)
