Welcome to my humble website. Scrutinize This doubles as a portfolio site and as a place where I can talk about things that interest me in the design world and my quest to leave my indelible mark on the world through art.

FREELANCE IN NYC

Sorry I haven’t updated to the few (if any?) followers I may or may not have. I’ve been working at a design agency PlentyNYC in New York since late October as freelance. It’s been a real huge learning experience as now I get to see the design process agencies need to go through along with clients to come up with a final product. As a freelancer I lack job security and I’m trying to make the push to a salary position at my job right now. Wish me luck

The Roll Continues!

The roll continues. If I was using Rollout I’d be at 5 stacks and one-shotting my enemies.

Took me about 3 hours in Photoshop.

I’m On A Roll

Stellar Graffitas

On a roll again. I love these periods where I can get enough of tinkering in Photoshop. Something I started today when I felt like doing something typography based.

Inspiration for this piece was from Nik Ainley’s “Fresh Science Word” piece. I LOVE this guys work and this piece in particular spurred me to make something like it.

Took me about 4 hours in Photoshop.

So.Green

SO.GREEN

Ever since I got my DSLR camera I’ve been taking pictures around my town.. This pretty much means 90% of what I shoot is trees and plants. I have been at a loss for what to do with these pictures until I randomly was messing with a picture of my girlfriend. I was wondering what to do for a theme and since she’s very into going green and being organic and all that crap the brilliant idea suddenly popped into my mind.

Took me about 5 hours in Photoshop and minor Illustrator.

Outside The Box

OUTSIDE THE BOX

I was working in 3D Studio Max just messing around with a Greeble plugin I downloaded and thought to make a random mock event poster. I really like how all the text turned out. I’m trying to make more stuff like this to add to my portfolio. I feel it shows potential employers that I can create something that’d be used by a client.. or something like that.

ENJOY!

New Piece for Contest

September 2nd, 2010

“TIME IS SLIPPING AWAY”

I finished this piece that I’ll be entering in the Photoshop Creative monthly contest. Hopefully I’ll win but the past has shown me how suspect their judging system can be. I hope you like it! The theme of the contest is “No Time to Lose” and I illustrated the concept of time slipping away like sand in an hourglass. Enjoy!
