Sprout

This summer I've been working for a clothing company that is just starting up. It's called Sprout and they make baby and children's clothing from bamboo and organic cotton. Bamboo is an amazing fabric! It's so soft, I love it. Here's one of the little graphics I designed for the clothes, which come from California. To see more, including the website I did go to http://www.sproutkidsclothing.com/

Paste

This was a subscription card project, I chose Paste magazine. Paste comes with a free CD of new and upcoming artists, mostly on the Indie scene. This started out as print making and ended up digital after some things went awry. The large dark area at the top of the front piece is actually a window, which I cut out and attached acetate to so the CD can be seen.

Photoshop Painting

More photoshop painting today. The first is an album cover for Carley Simon's You're so Vain. The background is scanned in acrylic on masonite, but the rest is Photoshop.

The smaller pieces are spots for some strange facts. The facts are the following, in order of the illustrations they go with:

1. Minimum # of shopping carts that went missing from LA area stores last year: 6 220 000
   
2. Pounds of radioactive produce grown near Chernobyl that were confiscated in Moscow markets last year: 1820
   
3. Chances that an unprotected PC will become infected with a virus within 10 mins of being on the Internet: 1:4

Memento Mori

This is a little photoshop painting I did for my best friend sometime ago and made into bookplates and stickers for her. Her little skinny pig, Mortimer, died recently and I've decided to post this to honour his memory. Rest in piece little guy.

Let's Get Digital

I've been having some serious internet issues lately so this post has been a long time coming. I've written it out so many times and not been able to post it... so long story short: digital work from first year.

1. Chocolate bar drawn from life, done in Illustrator

2. Spongebob juice lid drawn from life, painted in Photoshop

3. Made up dragon combined with photograph, phantom techniques in Photoshop
