Nicholson Two Lower Football Club



This is a design concept for the crest of my brother's college intramural soccer team. This design is based mostly off of the crests of English soccer clubs. This took me like two seconds in Inkscape.

When Boarding, Please Move to the Center of the Car



This is the latest idea I've had for the t-shirts i'm thinking about selling, although this would be a pretty complex silk screen job... It's the DC Metro subway system map without all of the stop labeled and everything. I really like the concept of the shirt and hopefully someday it will find its way onto something. It was done in about two hours in Inkscape.

The Invasion of Paris

This summer, my family and I went to Europe for a vacation. We spent a week in London and then took a train to Paris. While I was in Paris, I was able to find some of Invader's work scattered around the city. Invader is a street artist whose work consists of tiles glued to the sides of buildings and other fixtures in public areas in cities. The tiles are arranged to represent pixels and form characters from various vintage video games. They're usually from Space Invaders, hence his name. I was able to find three although there are many many more in many more cities.

Wage Peace Mk. II




This is an update of one of my favorite pieces, Wage Peace. I decided to start from scratch with it and take it in a different direction, I get more of a modern feel from it then the 1960's vibe from the other (from the style and type).

Although I began original work on Wage Peace before I had seen ~russoturisto 's piece .A.U.T.O.M.A.T. logotype, found here, I was slightly influenced by it this time around even though ~russoturisto (gallery here ) is far superior :). I hope like for the original, that this will end up on t-shirts so i included a TON of variations for different styles and colors.

Click on it to see it in a bigger size (it's pretty big).

Jack and Nina



Taken with an old Canon F-1 35mm SLR using Ilford HP5 film. It was really sunny out so i think the exposure time was 1000 with the aperture at f/16. I love the way the picture came out and absolutely no post work needed to be done on it. I really like this one.

Gem Practice




I drew this gem/ jewel icon for practice for doing reflective surfaces as well as for having it for my huge upcoming project that I can't talk about until May or so :). Anyway, I found a great online tutorial, available at the DesignCast Blog. It walks you through the process in about half an hour. Overall I'm pretty pleased with the way it came out.

Warning, Emotional Children Near




I got the idea to do a comical warning after browsing through deviantART one day. My inspiration comes from =SRotherham's piece, Ennui. It was just a fun little doodle that only took me about half an hour.
