Jason Dwyer - Designer + Illustrator

  • On a trip this summer to Porto this summer, I discovered why it is such a popular tourist destination in Portgual. Aside from the port wine of course, the heritage Ribeira and surrounding area is just packed with scenic lookouts over the water and the city.

There are parts of it that are sloppy, but I doubt I'd have the patience to work out something like this today. Tastes and interests change, and I guess I'd just prefer to be on the train instead and snap a pretty picture.
