When I saw this poem, I knew immediately it was referring to the Dinosaur Barbeque. It's a place where I always have a really great time. I thought it would be fun to illustrate, because it's always so full of energy.

I wanted the poster to be whimsical, because it was going to be for a wide variety of people to see. I wanted something that would catch people's eye, and basic shapes and bold colors do that. The bold images make a loud piece of work, and the Dinosaur BBQ is definitely a loud place. The Dinosaur BBQ can be heard from a distance, and my goal was for my image to be seen from a distance.
