Edel Rodriguez

This blog post at straight.com about the Vancouver Opera's 2009/2010 season posters by Edel Rodriguez got me to digging around for more of his work. The Cuban-born artist is prolific, producing theater and posters, children's books, book covers, and magazine illustrations. I hope you enjoy this side trip as much as I have.

Hi Maria,
Thanks for the mention of my work on your blog, the opera posters were a fun project. I also did the book cover for "The Surrender Tree" by Margarita Engle, which you blogged about earlier.

Best, Edel

My pleasure, Edel. I really enjoyed looking at your work on your blog and website. What a wonderful coincidence that I just posted about The Surrender Tree and you did the cover. How serendipitous!
