About a week ago I had my appointment at RedLetter1 to get my new tattoo done up. Still have another session coming up on my birthday (April 9th) so that way it’s healed up before the Back in Black event. I basically wanted the Angelo (the artist) to do his thing. My only reference was a skull, snake and roses. The reason for the skull is because I get so much shit from people about how uncool they are, yet I feel they are timeless and represent a iconic position in graphic design & art. The snake (besides being cool as hell) is to represent the ‘haters’ always there to take you down. And the roses… just a rose, ha. It’s just good symbolism. I also had BJ Betts, who is one of the top tattoo typographers out there do a couple scripts a while back. One is my kid’s names and the other is Peity (piety spelled incorrectly). Piety is in basic form, the search for perfection/purity. No one ever reaches that, so thought it was rad. So now, the debate… how much further do I go?… Kinda want more dammit, but need to wait till I have a good idea. Anyway….

Been trying to get more time in to just concept sketches and work out vector solutions. I’ve been posting recent things quite often on Twitter and Facebook quite regularly. Eventually I am planning on taking a sketch and vectoring it up on ustream so you can watch me in progress. However, not sure when that will happen, but I’ll keep you posted. So yeah, hit me up on Facebook or Twitter.

Just wrapped up a couple posters for Scion & Revolt Marketing this past week. Trying to explore some styles and going for that little thing called ‘diversity’. See, no skulls, sorry haters, my next post will have a skull in it, hahaha. Outside of that, just been busy. good times!

Just got done doing this up. Still has glitches, but all it is a teaser for the upcoming show. Hope you enjoy.

Sorry for the weak photos, they are from my phone. Just got proofs in for the Hydro74 Typography book. Will be shipping out next week. Discovered a few glitches which will be sorted out, which is great… why I love proofs. There is still time to take advantage of the pre-order lower price before the 15th over at Legacy of Defeat. This book turned out solid and it’s 60 pages thick with over 250 pieces of type involved..
