Oh, Comic San... How Designers Loathe Thee

Joe Hollier, a designer in NY, created this video... I thought it was very enjoyable to watch as a designer especially. A life perspective to a font that needs to die, 'Comic Con'. Click here to watch.

Sweet little girl

A recent sketch from a photograph of little girl. I really wanted to capture her sweet personality with this drawing.

Jim on the drums

I took this photo today of a musician outside Bryant Park on 42nd street on my way to the subway. Love hearing music as I woke the streets of New York. Its a good reminder to slow down and enjoy the moment. I combined two photos in Photoshop to give the image more movement. And called the musician Jim since I first learned that Photoshop technique in Jim Raymo class at Wayne State University.

Sheepshead Bay Canal, Brooklyn, NY

This is a small painting of Sheepshead Bay Canal in Brooklyn. Haven't used watercolors in a while but its great for outdoor painting, dries fast and not very messy. Trying to capture the beauty of the moment and making it my own in a way.
