Woah, dude

I made Dad an iPad seeing as there is no way in holy butts I can afford one for Father's Day. It was pretty sweet but I didn't think about taking a photo of it until I was walking out of the post office. Oops. Hopefully it gets there safe and sound so he can take a picture of it for me.

I keep saying "dude" at work, every time it slips out I feel like a rebel.

Here, have this:

Car is the Cathedral of the 20th Century

For a little bit there I was in an idea block, I think I'm out of it. However unless I'm actively working on things, I feel like I'm not productive. So I dug out the first piece I ever did with a shape oriented design a few years ago in order to maybe mess with it:

I think I did this for an Illustrator based project, I don't quite remember. The whole idea was from a quote I learned in my Beat Lit class "The car is the cathedral of the 20th Century" or something similar to that.



I remade all the shapes then did a little color change. Decided I was not done and messed with color more.





Then more color messing.



I figure I'm finished with it for now. I like it all three ways, but not sure which I like best. If anything, it was fun to revisit a piece I forgot about.

Two and a half weeks until I move to Indianapolis, I'm kind of pooping myself. I have a lot of crap to pack.

Bone Daddy



While doing research for this I came to the conclusion that If I were to marry an inanimate object to make many non-babies, it would probably be a 1952 olive-gold Gibson Les Paul. Either that or a suhweet Velvet Elvis painting.

Something about that Spark



We got a new lightbulb for above the mirror in the bathroom. It's so bright I am pretty sure I can see through my own forehead and into an alternate dimension. It's great for doing your eyebrows though.

Devil in a new trench coat

I could have sworn I made a post, but I guess it got eaten in the dead of night. Kind of scary considering the subject matter of the images I threw up. Weird!

Here are the images, I've been on a devil binge lately. After seeing The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus tonight compared to my already overinflated love for Tom Waits, the horns are going to be flying. Just you wait.




And some alternate color:


I threw all of these up on my Etsy. I'm getting way too addicted to that website.
