The Art Of Freedom: The Best Of 2016
In 2016, our small but talented art staff cranked out more than 1,300 images to illustrate A1F features. Stories better suited to a simple portrait are executed dutifully, but we’re always seeking opportunities to create something memorable—or shareable. Sorting them out at year’s end lets us briefly experience the joy of creation all over again, but winnowing our favorites is painful. So, forgive us if our Best of 2016 gallery is jammed with images; put your thumbs to work on our wares, and if you’re entertained … well, our work here is done.
