DESIGN MAFIA

Recently I ended up on some list that was asking for submissions for a design motif/poster for Create Berlin. Which, I guess is some kind of agency promoting different cities as design capitals or something.  I was intrigued because I spent a semester in Berlin in college. 

I remember seeing a lot of amazing graffiti and street art, and that inspired this drawing.

Bears are the official symbol of  Berlin, taken from their coat of arms, and he's dressed in Polizei riot gear. Keeping bad design at bay, he's probably a pretty good hugger too.
