Career Fair Illustration

Last week SCAD, my Alma Mater posted a call for images to promote their career fair. The requirements were so ridiculously specific that it sounded like an interesting challenge:

"Horizontal images created solely by digital means with a connection to the theme of soaring or rising to new heights... files should be a high-resolution jpeg at 300 dpi at 5 x 7 (1,500 x 2,100 pixels"

So last night I started sketching. I've got an image I'm really excited about, it portrays the art school graduate as businessperson entering the workforce. I've based the pose on Hermes/Mercury. But to add some humor I've juxtaposed the heroic pose with giant butterfly wings. He'll be emerging from a chrysalis when I complete the concept. Here is the rough character sketch so far:
