You know the Warriors never make the playoffs, so I decided to take advantage of this blue moon event and channel my inner fashion. Check out my design with Stephen Curry's number laced in between the warriors font. You can buy your own hoodie or shirt at Society 6.
GO WARRIORS!!!

Robot Fight!
The Terminator Vs. Johnny 5. Who could of scripted it better! I've been working on this piece in my personal time over the past months. The idea sprouted from a screen print I did at Art Center in 2005 and thought it is due time to make it come to life.
My humorous attitude is conveyed in this illustration of Johnny 5 fighting the Terminator with Robo-cop as the ref. The background is packed with other famous robots such as C3p0, bender, I-Robot, Murbot, Spaceballs robots, transformers, and much more oh my!
I chuckled when I saw the preview for the movie "Real Steel". They must of been looking over my shoulder or something. I can't hate though, I'll just take it as complement of good taste.

DJ Logo
I've been working on quite a few logos these days. People always think because most of the logos they see are so simple that they take no time to create. Well, the old saying "less is more" is actually true in logo making. In fact logos take quite a bit of time to design because a lot goes into them the naked eye does not see.
A logo has to be easily readable from far distances, whether your driving 70 MPH past a Mercedes Benz emblem or it's a scaled down version on the back of a business card. They have to be simple in order for people to associate and recognize the brand in split second intervals.
This logo I created is for DJ Donovan. He is coming out with his own clothing line and I was asked to design his logo which is called Donovan Patrick (DP).
I first start out by sketching rough thumbnails by hand then take them into photoshop to refine my ideas. After showing them to the client we make a decision to move forward on one of them. I create the final image in Illustrator where I can give the client variations of the logo such as color and line weight.

Jewelry Logo Design
I've been doing quite a few graphic design projects lately. This one was for the House of Jewelry. I first did thumbnails by hand and got feedback. They wanted a more famine style so made my designs more rounded rather then angular. Next I took some of the better logos and modified them in Photoshop(which is seen above). The final logo Incorporated the ring acting as a roof for the house, while the H's negative space provided a door.

Wicked
I went to the musical "Wicked" the other night with my girlfriend and got inspired to do a character out of the play. Dr. Dillamond was a teacher at the univeristiy where the wicked witch of the west went. I really don't like musicals, but I must say I would have to give this play two thumbs up. I used mostly photo's and textures to create this effect.

Gypsy's Edge
A video game concept for a mind sharping board game that involves answering questions from rock formations on the side of dangerous cliffs. Answer it correctly and move on till you reach your totem of zen. Answer it wrong and your stable path will give way beneath your feet. Questions get progressively harder as the game moves on. Live on the edge in Antarctica, Hawaii, Big Sur, Everest, and many more.

For the past few days I've been working on a CD cover for a local hip hop artist. The CD is called "Organic Hip-Hip". I started by sitting down with the artist and brainstorming some ideas
of where he wanted to take the album cover. I then did some thumbnails sketches and got Internet reference on the subject. A photo shoot was scheduled to take a picture of his hand holding the mic. There's nothing better than taking your own photo's not only for copyright purposes, but you also get exactly what your looking for. This is the first pass at this cover. I hope he likes it.

Friends
I have a weird sense of humor (as my friends tell me). You almost have to be weird to be an artist, or how else would we come up with new ideas. As a Designer you have to court social discomfort and stare awkward moments back in there face.
