Seattle (Cut Paper)

I made this design (for a poster of Seattle) entirely out of cut paper. While I did this a few months ago, it inspired the design idea for my sisters Wedding program, which I'll be posting in a few days. So I thought I'd throw this one up here first.

Bossypants!

I recently read Tina Fey's autobiography, Bossypants, and probably peed in my pants at least 3 times. If you're female, that's a good enough reason to read this hilarious book... and if you're male and open-minded, dig Tina Fey, comedy, improv, standup, laughter, any of that good stuff, check it out!

Then I went ahead and designed a logo... the illustration style is meant to rep Tinay Fey's goofy attitude, the name repping the title of her book. I'm imagining it on a wine label or light beer... maybe even coffee beans. Something for the working girl (or boy), woman (or man).

i had to post the book cover. so awesome. 

boogie drawing

Boogie is my favorite photographer. Check out his website, it'll blow you away. Beautiful shots from all around the world. The guy really just does what he loves... travels and takes photos. His work has been a source of inspiration for my own art for about 5 years now. 

Happy Birthday Love!

I love you Evan. I did your portrait with some of our favorite Deer Tick lyrics. 

South Lake Tahoe skate park

Ever since I was a kid, I've loved hanging out with the boys. The activities that they engaged in, the games that they played, it all seemed a lot more human, more glorious... than the things that little girls were being pushed towards in the 80's and 90's. So I do things like go sit at the skate park while my guy friends skateboard all afternoon. And I watch. And I draw. This one, in South Lake Tahoe, a place I've lived on and off for the past two years, is stunning. Right in the middle of the woods.

Little Dragon (spec concert poster)

Little Dragon is a Swedish electronic band

confrontation can be a good thing

ever since i started taking classes in graphic design my
laptop and i have been going steady.
it was so simple when I used to just draw, paint, email, scan.
but then again, now we're getting so close...
it's a battle i can't wait to wake up every morning and fight.

poker is fun. poker is fun?

just the confused thoughts of a poker player/artist trying to make sure i'm doing what i love. i love drawing. i love poker, sometimes? definitely not always.

never try to change the ones you love
