Life is Beautiful When It’s Overwhelming ~ Illustrations by Edward Cushenberry

LA-based artist Edward Cushenberry creates photographs and illustrations that show off his view of our city and its many different types of people. His latest book, Am I Supposed to be Cool With Everything is available from Never Press.

Please enjoy a selection of recent illustrations, but before that one quick question-- Edward, what's your favorite taco?

My favorite taco spot is "Taco Zone".

Check out Edward Cushenberry's instagram for more art and photography.
