Goooooooooooooal!

The first of two t-shirt designs to be completed (hopefully) by the close of this beautiful Memorial Day weekend. This was for Sydney, Winnie's sister, and her new soccer squadron "Team Typhoon".

Tree paintings from the past two days...






I've been trying to stay away from the computer, so my blogging frequency will suffer until June 9th. Apologies.

1-2-3 T-Shirt

Quick sketch on the G Train from Billyburgh to Cobble Hill. I guess my notes on the scanned page explain the high points of my thinking...high contrast (easy to reproduce), pump up the jams tag line, recognizable image...transformed with a college aged symbol and rocket-like lift off.

Took some shots of my model today...lots

Dig the groovy color activity...I'm not overly pleased with this thing, it has its merits, I suppose. I had big plans that were squashed by my deadline. I'm going to pull together the drawings and other stuff that I did and make a portfolio spread soon. At the presentation no one noticed that I sprayed every push pin on the wall behind me the maroon body color. Always point out shit like that or you won't get credit!

invitation


Today i am home, listening to Feist (and you should too because she is AWESOME! http://www.listentofeist.com/) and working on my friend's wedding invitation. This has been a long journey of learning my way around photoshop, printing methods, papers. I should finish the drawings today and hopefully they'll get printed up on Monday or Tuesday and mailed by next Friday or Saturday. I can't wait for it to be finished. It will feel good. Also, I found out yesterday that I got this curriculum planning gig at the Hebrew School for June and I think this income will allow me to put off getting a 9 to 5 job for the summer. Dimitri connected me (THANK YOU) to Marit Meisler who is an industrial designer and teacher at Pratt. Check out her website: http://cemment.com/. Assuming she can still use my help, I will work with her this summer and see where that leads. I am trying to have a little faith and not worry too much about what I'll do the pay the rent after September comes. This picture is actually not the invitation, but the reception card. It's what I'm working on at the moment.
