I was commissioned by AD Reyes Melendez to create illustrations for the St. John's Wellchild annual report. They wanted lively and colorful illustrations that reflected the spirit of their South Los Angeles neighborhood and clinic's clientele. The project included a wrapcover, a map, and a full page interior image.

The clinic provides medical, dental and behavioral health services with 13 health center sites (6 of them school based), and two mobile clinic units. Wellchild also has a Transgender Health Program, a program for unaccompanied minors who have fled to the US, and a program for Affordable House residents and the homeless-- programs that provide vital healthcare to these greatly under-served populations.
