Remember how Sufjan Stevens was gonna do an album for every state? I think he’s done like two in six years. C’mon man.<\/p>\n

Illustrator, writer, and designer, Frank Chimero<\/a>, has been turning the silhouettes of our 50 states into animals and other stuff for only a year. He’s already done 17. Take that, Sufjan.<\/p>\n

See all of Chris’ states here<\/a>. Or snag prints here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
