Beard Sketches

Some doodling for a Bearded Opinions logo.

Burning Man Shot!

Here's one of the customized test tubes the ladies of Pleasure Island put my burning donkey logo on! It's actually printed on the plastic - not a sticker!




Pretty nifty gift shot glasses wouldn't you say?

Painting & Hooping

So I'm currently working on a landscape (rather, skyscape) for my grandfather. The crappy image above is just a section of the gesso board I'm using.
But in between oil painting, I have found an obsession.

Hooping!

I started hula hooping a couple months ago and it has sprouted into a kind of love affair. I feel anxious without it and I'm constantly on the lookout for new moves to master. It's a great workout, it relieves stress, it looks pretty, and when you learn a new move you feel accomplished and triumphant - what's not to love? Anyway, I just recently dove into the world of fire hooping and I refuse to stop following this white rabbit down the fiery hole...
Here's my first fire hooping video (still working out some kinks, but I had a lot of fun):

Belated Keyboard Cat Gallery Post

At the beginning of this month, Ryan & I went to a (last minute) Keyboard Cat private gallery party at Meltdown Comics in LA. There were so many amazing keyboard cat pieces!! Bad idea on our part to leave from Costa Mesa at 5:30pm (that and using something other than GoogleMaps), but it was worth it in the end:

Cupcakes!

Made a few cutesy notebooks for my aunt this weekend with a colored birthday cupcake on the front and little sketches on each page - The people at Kinkos (or Fedex Office, I should say) actually knew what they were doing and remedied a problem quickly, restoring a little faith in me...






















Had to have some SusieCakes cupcakes after this project! Their store is so cute!! And yummy!

Copic Marker Doodle

Stole a moment to experiment with the small set of Copic Marker grays/greys I bought at Comic-con:

Logo for my friends at Burning Man camp, Pleasure Island (hence the Pinocchio donkey) - visit them at 9 O'clock and Adapt!

Logo Design

Got a chance to build on my design portfolio with some fun logo design for WiffleNotes.com and the always alluring Illuminata Fire Dancers!
