Ready For The TA TA GALA

Well, after sending it off to be printed on canvas, stretching the print onto a frame than staining the slats and nailing them to the sides of the canvas, I am ready to express ship this sucker to the gallery opening later this week. Talk about a rush job, but the printing of the piece took longer then I was expecting. I would so do it again though. I am really happy with the results. Makes me feel more like a real artist to have it on canvas in my hands that size. Very exciting.

A Tasty Concept...

Who has heard of Jovoto? I hadn't till recently. I guess it has only been recently that I have gotten into more graphic design stuff, so that may have something to do with it. They are a corporate design contest host. So you go there sign-up and start competing. All of them are for monetary prizes of varying amounts so there is always an incentive. These are my entry slides for the first one I have taken part in. The end goal is to design a concept for a new line of snacks for Kit Kat brand. The entry for this one closes in the next day or so then there is an extra week of voting by peers. It's always fun if you can do something that could make money in your spare time, right?

A Brief Segue into Design

Well after three days of working on my ambush painting I kind of needed a break. SO I decided to re-brand the company Smoothie King instead. Don't ask me how that is a "break" but it was fun. Took me about four days to finish from beginning to end. Sketches for all this started Thursday evening and I finished everything up this evening. Do I still need a break? Nah...well maybe haha. But who doesn't. These shots are only a taste of the full project. Take a HOP over to my site to take a look at the full thing.

A Midnight Ambush: Work In Progress UPDATE

A Midnight Ambush: Work In Progress

Just a little progress shot. I am still unsure as to how much I really wanna light the third party member BUT I'm pretty sure that there is going to be someone on the ground that has noticed them. The best way to play with the shushing motion from the guy int he dark. I have sketches for a character but I am waiting to put them in. There wouldn't be much to them due to the size, but the contrast from the fire should allow for some well established characteristics.

A Little Taste of Everything...

Ok, I said I would post up the new paint but I haven't gotten to far into it just yet. So here is the rough(very rough) sketch I do have done. To follow up with that is a logo "re-design" as a personal project of Lambesis Studios. I thought it would be fun to rework the look of what they had, but since this is something I did for myself you can look up their current logo yourself if your that curious.
