Election Fever

With the election just around the corner I felt like doing some light reading:

I know titles are meant to sell books, but this would turn a lot of people away from a decent read.

I've already added several -isms to my vocabulary that I'll have no chance to use unless …

Post Crazy

I've decided to start posting every day, again. That will mean the death of several weekly items, but I'll put some of that stuff in the sidebar. This will allow me to get more stupidity out there in the long run.

So, this is a bit of a transition post. I'll actually …

Dry Keep

On the Go:

1. I watched the debate last night. Wow, what an incredible waste of time. And there's still another debate left. Here's hoping for some shake-ups. In fact, here are some I would like to see:

Clicking on the Flock of the Hay

What's Slick:

1. I got my camera back on Monday. Oh, glorious day! Now, the general public doesn't have to just read my uninteresting words. They can see my uninteresting pictures, too. Take this one for instance:


I think shooting it in black and white would have given it …

One of the Greats

Woke up to the news that George Carlin had died last night. Now, this is really lame due to the fact that this man, along with Richard Pryor; Bill Hicks; and Bill Cosby, shaped me into the very odd person I am today.

Truly one of the greatest comedic minds ever to grace …

Must...Post...More

I've been neglecting the Internets again. Probably due to The Cult of the Amateur by Andrew Keen. That made for some self-loathing.

I'll get around to updating my portfolio this weekend.

Anyway, here's some things from the past month or so.








Most were originally made for …

Creative Focus

I've been experimenting not necessarily with style, but substance, as of late. While I love the off-the-wall stuff and seemingly pointless designs, I've become severely bored. That's something I wasn't expecting, and it has led me to more odd things. However, I have …

Somnium

I've decided to take a break from doing t-shirts not related to a contest theme. Instead, I'm planning on trying some other applications for illustration; such as: logos, typography, posters, a bit of web design, and general competitions.

Here's something I did this past …

Never Miss Them

As I mentioned, some time ago, I reduced my online presence as it was becoming ridiculous. Well, there were always a few sites I never stopped frequenting. Here they are:

The Sartorialist
FFFFOUND!
Fecal Face
LogoPond - Identity Inspiration

You can never be too inspired.

The New Bank

I did this piece before the one in my last post, but I got a bit busy and couldn't put it up.

I should have something new tomorrow for the Allmightys contest.

Space Travel is Easy

I recently put this up for voting in the Allmightys contest Future-Past-Perfect

Click the picture for a much needed detail view.

The idea behind the contest, as I understood it, was to think of things we heard about in the past regarding the future and the truths that …

An Evening with Dr. Nosebundle

I had originally intended to use this is as a cover for a faux-speaking engagement. However, due to time restrictions, I wasn't able to do the rest. Still one of my favorites though.

Portfolio Update and More

I just updated my Behance portfolio with five new pieces. Normally, I don't exchange everything out, but it just turned out that way.

Here's an interesting new site: Infectious Car Art

I don't know how it'll work, but I'm thinking of submitting something for the Obama …

The Transition Begins

Sketches of Inspiration

I don't like to sketch every day. Writing is another story. However, on Mondays I usually walk around the not-so-small town of Westminster. That's when I do sketch, and I thought I'd start showing it.

It actually reveals a great deal about my process. I like to pick a …

Concert in the Park

As I said before, I really like writing. Nothing coherent, but it sometimes springs some ideas to the forefront. So, with that in mind, here's how the sounds were being supplied yesterday at the park.
