Our very own iPhone sketcher Jorge Colombo, whose eight 20x200 editions have become instant classics, recently placed second in TIME Magazine's top 10 magazine covers of the year!

Of Jorge's iconic New Yorker cover, Arthur Hochstein writes,

No homage here — this cover is a true original. New Yorker covers are often topical, and they are known for their wit and keen cultural timing. But several times a year, they just run covers that capture the New York–ness of America's greatest city. This cover found a groundbreaking way to do that, featuring a piece by illustrator-designer Jorge Colombo that was created on an iPhone applicaton called Brushes. If it had been done just for novelty's sake, it would be noteworthy but not significant. But this illustration meets the impeccable standards of New Yorker covers — an accomplishment in any medium.

But that's not all! After a year spent drawing city landscapes for 20x200 and for The New Yorker, Jorge will be embarking on a new project: creating digital sets for an Off-Broadway ballet called Nutcracker: Rated R on his iPhone. "It's the first time I have done this kind of thing," he writes. "My projected images will dance along with the performers, and I can only hope it all works out -- the whole process is being created from scratch." We're crossing our fingers for Jorge here at 20x200!

Tickets to Nutcracker: Rated R, which opens on December 17th, are going to sell out fast so head over to Jorge's site to reserve yours today.
