The KC Chiefs are heading to the Super Bowl once again! Here's a page I drew from the book Go Chiefs Go! after the Chiefs won the big game in 2020. I wrote a little about my work on that book in my Substack open.substack.com/pub/robpeter...

It’s time for another look back at books I’ve illustrated.
