Cats are inside monsters, they are the real monsters. This is true.

Revenge in Technicolor!

Web design

It is yet another place on the internet that I am advertising my design and illustration services. This site is meant to work locally to help people in my own area find me and utilize my graphic services. Isn’t that great? I think so.

Bob the comic web graphic

Here is a graphic that I made for http://bobthecomic.net/. It’s part of a website overhaul that, as of now, has not occurred. My hope is that one day it will. Till then, enjoy.

Muddog logo

Logo and identity mark for an oklahoma high school baseball team called the Muddogs. What is a muddog exactly? It is impossible to know.

Hilliard business cards

The Hilliard logo design project also included a business card design. This design went through several iterations itself, but I am only posting three of the stronger options from the second to last round of revisions. The final choice is a refined version of one of the three cards below.

Hilliard logos 2

Round two of the Hilliard logo design. My client decided that she wanted a ‘japanese’ feel and suggested that I work with a lotus or a bonsai. The logo at the top of the sheet was selected and I refined it a bit.

Hilliard logos 1

Here are a few unused logo designs that i created for a recent client. My direction was to use earth tones and involve trees/nature. My client works in southern california and she wanted to capture look and feel of her surroundings. The red logo at the top of the sheet moved on to round two.

Coco Cthulhu

Coco cthulhu, the forgotten monster cereal. It was pulled off the shelves because it made children’s mouths bleed. Also it drove some people crazy. Although it should be said that it still tasted better than Fruite Brute.

Caches the Ghosts T-shirts

I did to somewhat similar t-shirt designs for the great local texas band called Caches the Ghosts. It’s always fun working with bands. You get to work with creative passionate people, you get paid and you get a free t-shirt. The guys are only going to print one of these designs but i’m putting both in my blog so you can see what you can’t have. I am a stinker, i know. BUt maybe, just maybe, you favorite shirt will be the one that gets printed.

Motorcycle Ride T-shirt

Fun commission gig for a motorcycle ride. I tried to find a really good local printer for my client and found the guys at Do for it design. They were really cool and made me a great deal on a small custom order. Sadly i couldn’t go with them because while I was looking for the best deal, my client found their own printer(who also did an awesome job, btw). But if your in the denton/ft worth area and need a good affordable t-shirt printer, go here.

Bob’s sticker promotion

Recently, I was lucky enough to get to work with my good friend Bob Khosravi. Bob is a professional stand up comedian performing out of Austin Texas. I helped him make a sticker for a very unusual and, i think, inspired marketing scheme. His idea was to print up a couple hundred water proof vinyl stickers and place them in public urinals. The stickers would feature an illustration, by me, of bob standing frightened under an umbrella with his website adress plastered underneath. The only downside to this project is that to implement his strategy of his urinal marketing is that Bob will have to place his hands in 250 public pee palaces. So if you’re having a late night of drinking and you stumble into a restroom to make room for more liquid refreshment and you suddenly find yourself peeing on Bob Kosravi, don’t panic. You should relax and enjoy the privilege usually reserved for the selected few. And then you should visit his website, or save you some time and just go here. Easier, yes. But much less fun.

5K flyer/shirt

Fun little flyer design that will also probably be used for a t-shirt. It’s for a 5K run in October benefiting ‘Solutions of North Texas.’ And being sponsored by the North Texas Rehabilitation Association. These are good people and if you can make it out, do so!

Reading program poster illustration

I am very proud of this project. I think it’s one of the best things I’ve done in a while and it’s for a project that supports reading.

Immigrant Punk shirts

I have developed an ongoing creative relationship with the great band called Immigrant punk. I’ve done two shirts for them so far, featured below, as well as their logo, which is featured somewhere else on this blog. I love working with and listening to this band. If you haven’t yet seen this band, i suggest you do so. I think they’re great. I am biased of course, but in the best possible way.

New tales of fiction!

After a long hiatus, here it is! Tales of fiction number 6. In this landmark issue we find not only the legendary legion of beards battling it out with robo-satan but also the first every appearance of the “NO SUCH THNG!”

green dragon

This is a little dragon drawing I made for client who wanted a cartoonish dragon for some high school reunion invitations. Fun stuff.
