Marius Valdes, Studio Art/Graphic Design + Illustration, had two pieces of art chosen for American Illustration 39 as part of The ARCHIVE collection at ai-ap.com. These artworks were two of only a few hundred images selected from over 7,000 entries and therefore eligible to appear permanently on The ARCHIVE.

 This year’s distinguished jury included: Milan Bozic, Senior Art Director, HarperCollinsPublishers;  Maëlle Doliveux, Creative Director & Designer, Beehive Books;  Christine Foltzer, Associate Art Director, Tor;  Emily Glaubinger, Senior Designer, Anthropologie Home;  Rodrigo  Honeywell, Art Director, The New York Times;  Anton Loukhnovets, Creative Director, 30 Point;  and Carolyn Perot, Creative Director, Mother Jones.

The acclaimed American Illustration competition is the first and foremost go-to resource for art directors, designers, and art buyers who insist on assigning only the best original, thoughtful, and compelling pictures.
