Taco Shop Illustrations by Charles Glaubitz

Mexican illustrator Charles Glaubitz lives in Tijuana, and teaches at San Diego City College. His illustrations are fantastic and glow with a certain joy of life, especially these taco shop drawings. At first these works look like they could've been on the wall of your favorite taqueria growing up. As you look closer, you see an uncommon level of mastery combined with wonderful layering. These were created for Chilango Magazine to celebrate the best tacos in Mexico City.
