acmoore secret drawings

i found them!

A.C.Moore secret drawing

sometimes i draw at work...
i cant find 2 other drawings i did at work. angry santa and ugly snowman.

the fantastic four, shot by fantastic Shalini Saycocie!

I think I like working smaller. This guy is around five and a half inches tall, four inches wide, and 3 inches thick. I also left more of the super sculpey's natural color show through. no teeth this time, no creature combination. not sure how i feel about that.

my first Zazzle submission

http://www.zazzle.com/bee_button-145872171274875550 Here is the address to my bee button! It's just something quick to see how the site works. It's really easy so far.

elephant tee

the next threadless competition is "travel".
here are some thoughts.

http://threadless.com/critique/383986/continuous_line_elephant

here's the link to the crit. it might be ready for voting but i want to see what people have to say.

elephant with peanuts. something for a broader audience. maybe this will be better received by the threadless community. These are just the elements. not sure how to design it yet.

thanks for the nick brandt inspiration carla.:)

:D

these are the colors that it is readable on. im not sure how many tee shirt colors we are allowed to have available. this might be too many.

...cleaned it up a bit. i added some white line work and now i think it works on any color.

threadless politics

Apparently it's frowned upon to rally your friends to vote on your design.
this is a post on a T-shirt made by someone else.

"wow, what great details.

no, sillies, not in the drawing details, but in the fact you were able to rustle up that many friends to comment in so short a time--with detail oriented kisses. you must find it hard to sit down at this point.

seriously, after seeing some of the other artwork barely noticed, but worth comments, on this site, and then by happenstance coming across this "work of doodle", leaves me rather..."

it seems that the users on threadless really value their sense of community and are insulted when someone pollutes the system with friend rallying. the social environment is more complex than i thought and now i'm worried that i will be subject to similar scrutiny if my obvious attempts at rallying "pay off".

now that i think about it some more, threadless encourages the "rustling up" of friends and gives you convenient links to your design to post and email everywhere. I now feel have not done anything wrong in this sense and i will use this as defense if anyone calls me out.

It's up let's do this!

giggle danpa

look it's Giggle Panda! he only looks good on dark colors of course. This is directly from facebook graffiti so i might have to redraw it. Any thoughts on placement or size?

submitted!
they will be contacting me in 4-8 business days. My submission will be reviewed by their group of Judges before put into the running. They will send me an email when my submission has been approved for scoring.

threadless.com

Here's my progress on the threadless tee. I'm submitting it to the "threadless loves drawing" contest. I cant decide which preview image to submit, so here are both. The olive green is the only color that i think works, but I didn't want to limit people to one color.

I figured just one image would be good enough, considering this is my first time, and I don't know how to do the fancy flash stuff. :/

here are are few things i like from my sketchbook. we have the bothersomes, some rectangles, and a song by Four Tet called Turtle turtle up.




...Galapagos

much closer to a birdmoth, and to Halloween?

figuring out the birdmoth, and contemplating mortality.

heres the moosefrog.

this was the first sculpey creature from my summer series.

Here's the tree totem from my business card in 3D!
A candle fits inside like a jack-o-lantern.

LOOKOUT IT'S A WINDOW!!!
rar rar!

o hai!

I drew a Tree.
is this what i should be putting across my images?
i don't know. i hear it's ok if it's just low resolution.

buisness cards

I made some changes on my card. I still can't make up my mind. the card on the top is the new one. I like the colors better, but i miss having my name sideways. in the old one on the bottom, i think the text makes an awkward white space and the info is too small.

here's a painting i did on one of those pieces of wood from my dads wood burning kit, it has a nice turkey on the back.

-animal collective lyrics.

my dad found his old wood burning set and said i could have all these!

i've been painting on the backs of them because i dont want to cover up the neat pictures. Look it's Honest Abe! 

Can you find the Pueblo Jeweler???
