So the second product logo I designed for Hammer and Light is officially live with their first men’s product! Drift, for Men, is a beautiful unique gift for men, including a shaving set and masculine silver ring. It looks amazing burned into the wooden serving tray–a beautifully executed product!

So the vector portion of the Retro pin-up fairy is complete and I’ve moved on to the final distressed design. This all hinges on Google Translate giving me good french, so I am really hoping that I have the right phrase… Anyways, I played with a handful of type layouts, two of the ‘close but ...

I’ve been working more on the Retro Fairy pin-up t-shirt design since last I posted, going for a little more art nouveau with the classical pin-up allure. Added the stockings (not shown I tried stripes instead of the dots but Chad and I both agreed they were too dark), the garter and frills, the new ...

I’ll go ahead and update some sweets tomorrow–tonight I’m breaking in my new merhorse flask and admittedly have alcohol on the brain, so here are my two favorite drink photos that I took while working for how2heroes in 2009/2010.

Way overdue! Here is a tiny smattering of some of the photos I took at Victoria Falls in Zambia, South Africa, on the last two days of my Africa trip. I meant to upload these ages ago, but the small design projects piled up and I love showing as many types of art as possible. ...
